Origin and history

L'Écomusée de Boigneville is a monument located in the commune of Boigneville, Île-de-France. Although its exact period of creation is not specified, it is part of a process of valuing local heritage, typical of ecomuseums that emerge from the 20th century to preserve collective memory and traditional know-how. Ecomuseums, such as Boigneville, play a key role in the transmission of rural and artisanal history.

In a region such as Ile-de-France, marked by strong urbanization, these places maintain a link between the inhabitants and their agricultural or artisanal heritage. They often illustrate the daily life, tools, trades and social organization of past communities.
