Écomusée de Saint-Dégan, Agricultural heritage museum in Brech, France.
The Écomusée de Saint-Dégan displays traditional farming tools, furniture, and rural architecture within multiple thatched-roof houses near the Loc'h river banks.
Established in 1969 by local volunteers, the museum received official recognition as a 'musée de France' in 2003 after years of collecting and preserving regional artifacts.
The museum presents daily life from the Pays d'Auray region between 1850 and 1950 through preserved buildings, agricultural equipment, and traditional techniques demonstrations.
The museum welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 2 PM to 5 PM, offering guided tours and educational workshops about rural heritage.
Several films, including 'Portrait of a Young Woman on Fire', selected this museum's authentic 17th to 19th-century buildings as shooting locations.
