Origin and history

The Municipal Toy Museum, located in La Ferté-Macé, is a place dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of old and traditional toys. Although its exact period of creation is not specified in the available sources, its existence is part of a local heritage approach aimed at transmitting the history of the game and playful objects throughout the eras. The town of La Ferté-Macé, located in Normandy, has long been marked by a tradition of craftsmanship and industry, particularly linked to the manufacture of wooden toys in the 19th and 20th centuries.

This type of museum plays a key role in the collective memory, illustrating the evolution of children's practices, materials used and local know-how, while sanctifying in the regional cultural fabric.
