The Archaeological Society of Touraine invites you to discover 300 years of Touraine and Ligérienne earthenware from its collections ...with some exceptional pieces (patronymic bowl at the Pont de Nevers and train of boats, pebble of Tours au ballon "Le National", fish dish of Léon-Brard, palyssist work of the Avisseau...) and simpler objects, decorative or utilitarian that reveal a work where the craftsman rubs with the artist (Langeais fine earthenware basket, Nevers corporate earthenware, etc.)
