Musée de Bourgoin-Jallieu

The Musée de Bourgoin-Jallieu is a museum in Bourgoin-Jallieu focused on textile production and art. The exhibitions show printing methods, fabrics, and landscape paintings spread across several rooms.

The museum opened in 1933 and occupies buildings from the 16th century, a former chapel, and an old hospital from the 18th century. These historic structures frame the spaces where textile craft collections are displayed.

The museum displays printing tools and fabric patterns from different periods of textile history. Visitors can see how local craftspeople shaped cloth designs across generations.

The museum is open most weekdays with limited hours on weekends. It helps to check opening times in advance and allow enough time to explore the different exhibition areas.

The museum holds a rare collection of printing blocks and stencils showing how patterns were hand-transferred to cloth. These craft tools are rarely seen elsewhere and offer insight into an almost vanished skill.
