Ministry of CultureEuropean Heritage Days - Cork and Cork Stopper Museum
Mezin
POP! The cork pops, the party begins. But what to do with the cork? Can it be recycled? Where does it come from anyway? Head to Lot-et-Garonne to discover all its secrets!
The cork and cork museum bears witness to the Albret cork industry: from the cultivation of cork oak to its transformation into corks of all sizes.
With your cuddly toy, your family, or with friends - but without your pet - the museum is delighted to help you discover the incredible properties of cork and its everyday use: in earrings, in insulation and even in space!
