About Écomusée de la Bintinais Museum
On the edge of Rennes, the Écomusée de la Bintinais is a wonderful open-air museum set on a historic farm, devoted to the rural life, traditions and agricultural heritage of the countryside around Rennes over the past four centuries. Its exhibitions, housed in old farm buildings, trace the daily life, work, crafts and social history of Breton country people, while the surrounding fields and pastures are home to a living conservatory of traditional local breeds of cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry, and old varieties of fruit and crops. Walking the farm trails among the animals and orchards brings this heritage vividly to life. Educational, authentic and family-friendly, the Écomusée de la Bintinais offers a delightful and immersive journey into the rural past and living traditions of Brittany, a green and rewarding cultural escape close to the city of Rennes.
