In 2023, Maison Nature & Patrimoines hosts a new exhibition "Textile Seed – Hemp a forgotten culture?" created with the association Petra Castellana
Cultivated for millennia for its fiber, transformed into shirts, sheets or ropes, hemp was abandoned for a century before seeing its culture reborn at the end of the twentieth century.
This exhibition highlights the qualities of hemp and makes you discover the history, ancient and current uses, contemporary works of art and the botany of this unjustly forgotten plant.
