Lively heritage walkEmbark on a unique heritage walk through exceptional private sites brought to life to offer you demonstrations of traditional know-how, animations and encounters with those who make this unique heritage live.
Accompanied by a history buff, enter spaces usually closed to the public and meet history.
At the bend of a private garden housing a traditional pottery oven, an old pottery house welcoming for the occasion a reconstitution of a craftsman at work on his turn to stick; or even a wash-house where the washerwomen busy to launder the linen...
Enjoy an interactive historical walk with family or friends.

About the location

Le Patiau - Centre d'art et d'histoire céramique

2 rue du Calvaire, 56350, Saint-Jean-la-Poterie

In Gallo, the "Patiau" designates the small block of earth, placed on the tower, from which the pot is made. Thus begins the story of men and women who for more than 1,000 years have shaped the land of Saint-Jean-la-Poterie! The Patiau, a centre of art and ceramic history, tells the story of this unique ceramic heritage and invites visitors to discover the perpetual gesture of the decorators of the Saint-Jean-de-Bretagne pottery and the creativity of contemporary ceramics. Three spaces, three atmospheres: the museum space, the pottery decoration workshop and the boutique gallery.
