Museum of Sologne, Regional museum in Romorantin-Lanthenay, France.
The Museum of Sologne occupies three converted mill buildings in central Romorantin-Lanthenay, linked by a pedestrian bridge over the Sauldre River. The spaces display objects and documents that trace the region's history and daily life.
The site originated from three mills that once processed grain at this riverside location. They were later converted into a museum complex to preserve the region's heritage and stories.
The museum displays traditional crafts and agricultural ways of life that shaped the region for centuries. Visitors see how local communities worked and lived through carefully arranged objects and tools.
The museum sits in the town center and is easy to reach on foot from the station or parking areas. Facilities like restrooms and seating areas are available for visitor comfort.
Leonardo da Vinci once sketched ambitious plans for a royal city here, complete with waterways connecting distant seas. The museum displays his designs and notes about this unrealized dream.
