An intimate and human story
Musée des Nourrices et des Enfants de l’Assistance Publique
The history of nannies and welfare children has shaped the identity of the Morvan. Since the end of the 18th century, it has involved tens of thousands of children, women and families. Evoking these individual and collective destinies, the Museum of Public Assistance Nannies and Children is a link between history and current issues relating to the family, childhood, parenthood...
The museum
You'll walk through the exhibition space as if you were in a village, from house to house, through a lively scenography that combines historical data and sensitive testimonies. Your journey follows that of the children taken in by the Assistance Publique, the nannies "on the spot" who stayed in the Morvan and those "on the spot" who went off to the city to nurse children other than their own.
The museum's brasserie-library
Built around the idea of welcoming visitors, the museum houses a brasserie-library, a real place to live and meet in the heart of the village: have a drink or a snack, chat or work, read a book or play a game... At all times, we offer a menu of sweet and savoury snacks: buckwheat cakes, wheat pancakes, toadstools... As the number of places is limited, booking is recommended.
