Maisons Comtoises de Nancray

The museum presents 35 traditional buildings spread across 15 hectares of land, displaying rural architecture from the Franche-Comté region.

Established in 1988, the museum collected and relocated authentic structures from the 17th to 19th centuries to preserve the architectural heritage of the region.

The museum maintains gardens with local plants, houses farm animals, and offers demonstrations of regional crafts such as doughnut making and beeswax candle creation.

Located 15 kilometers from Besançon, the museum opens from April to November and provides guided tours, workshops, and a restaurant serving local cuisine.

The museum integrates digital technology through geolocation stations that deliver augmented reality content without requiring visitors to download applications.
