Immersion et création dans une ancienne mégisserie

Immersion and creation in an old tannery

Share on …

Graulhet and leather, it's a very long history that has shaped the city of today. What better way to discover it than to go to the heart of an old tannery?

During a guided tour of this vast space, children will learn about the machines and techniques that transform skins into leather. This is just the first step… The proposal of a “leather workshop” invites students to continue their exploration of tanning towards leather goods and to create their own small leather object (purses or animal figurines depending on the level).
A game booklet helps students summarize their discoveries of the day.

Guided tour – 25 children – 1h15
Leather workshop – 30 children (in half groups) – 1h30
