Village - museum of Poul-Fetan, Village museum in Quistinic, France.
Poul-Fetan is a reconstructed rural village with thatched-roof buildings, fields, and farming areas in Quistinic. The site shows the layout and structure of a traditional Breton settlement, including homes, workshops, and crop areas.
The settlement was fully restored in the 1970s to preserve the architecture and farming traditions from Brittany's past. This restoration saved buildings and knowledge that would have otherwise disappeared.
Staff members in period clothing demonstrate traditional crafts like wool spinning and bread baking throughout the site. You can watch how people once lived and worked in this farming community.
Set aside four to five hours to explore the buildings, fields, and workshops at your own pace. You can join in hands-on activities and taste regional food prepared using traditional cooking methods.
The museum keeps herds of Breton black and white cattle and local sheep breeds that carry on the region's farming heritage. These animals are not museum pieces but living inhabitants that work and graze in the fields daily.
