Origin and history

The Musée de l'École 1900 in Saint-Martin-des-Olmes is a monument located in the commune of Saint-Martin-des-Olmes, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. This museum is dedicated to the reconstruction of a typical school of the early twentieth century, a pivotal period for education in France. Although the precise details of its creation or history are not mentioned, its existence reflects the importance attached to preserving the local educational heritage.

In the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region at the beginning of the 20th century, schools played a central role in village life. They were not only learning places, but also spaces for socialization and transmission of republican values. The schools of that time often reflected the modest living conditions of rural populations, while embodying the educational reforms that marked this period.
