Conscription in Bourbonnais

Exhibition - Conference

From 1798 to 1997, conscription covered two centuries of our history. The confusion between the necessities of military control of youth and a "rite of passage" towards adulthood have generated many practices: the memory of the Class is found in badges, objects, photographs, songs, and a set of magical-religious to guard against the wrong numbers in the draw... We can visit the exhibition set up in the Embraud landlord from 15:00, and follow the conference from 16:00. A snack bar, tasting patties cooked in the oven and some songs of occasion will complete the animation.
