CULTURAL HERITAGE Barrême-en

Musée de la Distillerie

Musée de la Distillerie
If you're passing through Barrême, have you ever noticed the large brick chimney soaring into the sky? It's a perfume plant distillery. The distillery was built in 1905 by an internationally-established German company.

Set in the heart of the machinery, the museum is dedicated to the surprising history of this factory and the distillation of lavender in the Grasse hinterland.
Aromatic plants, essential oils and games will awaken all your senses. Also worth a visit is the museum store dedicated to lavender and perfume plants.
Events are held regularly in July and August.

For groups (over 10 people), the museum is open all year round by reservation, with guided tours at reduced rates.
