Diamanterie de Felletin, Industrial heritage museum in Felletin, France.

The Diamanterie exhibits diamond cutting tools, machinery, and equipment from the early 20th century industrial period in a restored cooperative building.

Founded in 1906 as a diamond workers' cooperative, the facility operated until 1982, marking nearly eight decades of diamond cutting expertise in central France.

The museum preserves the industrial memory of Felletin through original machinery, documentation, and artifacts related to diamond cutting techniques and cooperative work methods.

The museum opens from April to November, Tuesday through Sunday, with guided tours available and special rates for students, unemployed individuals, and disabled visitors.

The building, selected in 2020 for heritage preservation, represents the last remaining diamond cutting workshop in the Creuse department.
