Maison des libellules

Maison des libellules, Natural history museum in Chaillé-sous-les-Ormeaux, France.

The Maison des Libellules is a former presbytery containing 400 square meters of exhibition space dedicated to dragonflies and the Yon Valley ecosystem. The building displays information about how these insects live and what they need to survive in local waters.

The structure began as a presbytery building and was later adapted into a museum focused on dragonfly research and education. This transformation reflects growing regional interest in studying and protecting local insect populations.

The building reflects local efforts to teach visitors about insects and the ecosystems they inhabit through hands-on experiences. You can see how the exhibits engage people with the natural world and inspire care for the environment.

The site covers two hectares with outdoor areas designed for exploring and observing dragonflies in their natural setting. Visitors should allow time to walk the trails, experience the barefoot path, and use other interactive facilities.

The grounds feature a barefoot trail and sensory garden where visitors can experience the environment using all their senses. These hands-on experiences create direct connections between people and the natural world around them.
