Thiers is full of history and the most emblematic remains that of cutlery. To share it, the city highlights several talented cutlers, past and present who helped forge its reputation. Their devotion guided 10 of them to the title of Best Workers of France, which rewards the most skilled craftsmen in their fields. Come and discover them at the exhibition «Lames d'excellence, les Meilleurs Ouvriers de France», with Henri Viallon and Angel Navarro, emblematic figures who lent their hands and their know-how to the city to develop cutlery crafts.
