Origin and history

The Musée du Terroir Hérissonnais is located in the commune of Hérisson, in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The aim of this cultural place is to preserve and transmit the tangible and intangible heritage of the region, through collections linked to local traditions, ancient occupations and the daily life of the inhabitants. Local museums play an essential role in promoting regional identities.

In Hérisson, as in other rural communes, these spaces keep the collective memory alive, often centred on agriculture, crafts and local know-how. They also bear witness to the social and economic developments that have marked these territories over the centuries.
