About

Les Forges de Pyrène, a living‑history village set in the beautiful Ariège Pyrenees, invites visitors to step back into the early 1900s. The site recreates a traditional industrial‑era village, complete with authentic workshops, demonstrations, and hands‑on crafts such as forging, basketry, clog making, and a bread‑oven. With up to six interactive sessions each day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., the park offers a fully covered experience that’s perfect for families, school trips, and history lovers alike. A museum houses more than 5,000 artifacts, and the historic Forge à Martinet showcases medieval metal‑working techniques. Accessible to visitors with reduced mobility, the site also provides free accommodation for pets and pet‑friendly boxes for dogs. The charming atmosphere, combined with educational storytelling and live shows, makes it an unforgettable cultural outing.
