MAISON DU PATRIMOINE ET DE LA CULTURE

In the heart of the old bastide of Valentine, the house of heritage was built in a large building that was owned by the paternal family of Marshal Ferdinand Foch. Bought by the municipality, inaugurated in 1951 by President Vincent Auriol, and completely renovated in 2011, the place is now used for cultural activities and promotion of Valentine's heritage. 4 spaces are to be discovered: the media library, the former living room of the Foch family decorated with splendid paintings of the 19th century which hosts a permanent exhibition on Foch and the porcelains of "Bleu de Valentine". On the first floor, the remains of a Gallo-Roman villa dating from the 4th century and of a priory that spanned several centuries are presented, as well as a room for temporary exhibitions.
