An experimental farm built by Louis XVI and a training centre since the Revolution, the Bergerie Nationale is still home to the famous Mérinos sheep, an undeniable economic and diplomatic lever that has become a living heritage. But, while preserving its original missions, the Bergerie has also been able to evolve its productions and its teachings towards agroecology. Large educational farm, it now welcomes the general public and school students all year round.
On the occasion of the European Heritage Days, a free route is proposed to the visitor to discover the entire site of the National Bergerie through 3 thematic spaces related to the different heritages encountered on the site: built, natural and living heritages. In each of the spaces, presentations, demonstrations, workshops, exchanges are offered by our staff or our local partners.
