À propos du lieu

Musée du four des Casseaux

1 rue Victor Duruy, 87000 Limoges

Haute-Vienne
Nouvelle-Aquitaine

The Casseaux Museum houses the Casseaux Kiln, built in 1904 and which today is a Historical and Technical site dedicated to the porcelain of Limoges. This 19th-century industrial building traces the evolution of manufacturing and testifies to the difficulties and successes in this quest for fire control.
This associative museum, created in the 1980s by the union of industrialists passionate about history and heritage, literally takes its visitors on a journey through time.
Located on a historic site, this imposing 19th century industrial building with remarkable architecture is a true witness of human and technical prowess in the history of the porcelain industry. The presence of period machines diffuses an authentic atmosphere whose centerpiece is discovered in its heart: the oven of the Casseaux.
Classified as a Historic Monument in 1987 for its ingenuity and the human and industrial symbol it represents, it is the only round inverted flame oven still standing in France. Built in 190
