    • The Musée du Compagnonnage in Toulouse is a fascinating place that highlights the history and traditions of the compagnonnage, a system of learning and transmitting artisanal skills.


      Collections and exhibitions

      The museum exhibits a rich collection of masterpieces created by Compagnons during their Tour de France. These creations bear witness to the excellence and diversity of the trades represented (carpentry, joinery, locksmithing, bakery, etc.).
      Among the highlights are complex models, works in wood, stone, metal, as well as astonishing creations, such as a wrought iron dress.
      In addition, there are regular temporary exhibitions.


      Visit experience

      The visit offers an immersion in the companion culture, its values, its rituals and its importance in the history of French craftsmanship.
      Visitors can interact with former Compagnons, who share their passion and knowledge of the trades and works on display.

    Open only on Wednesdays, this Tour de France companion museum allows you to admire many masterpieces created for the fourth year of training free of charge. Worth a detour into the streets of old Toulouse.

    Très déçue. La personne à l'accueil n'est pas du tout un guide et n'accueille pas les visiteurs. Je suis restée sur ma faim quant aux explications. Trop de questions restées en suspens. Pourquoi un...
