The team of the Touage Museum welcomes a new member: Georges, straight from the North! His rough comments punctuated with a strong "Ch'ti" accent will annoy his colleagues. Laurence, intransigent, will not hesitate to take him back throughout his performance. From the construction of the canal to the current situation and the installation of the first electric router a little over a century ago, nothing will escape the guide’s vigilance.
A visit led by a funny duo as entertaining as it is endearing.
A good time to spend with family or friends!
