Visit the Tour Nivelle museum
This family museum is housed in the former Tour Nivelle village school in Courlay, built in 1885. To immerse yourself in the school of yesteryear, you can choose between two options:
- A self-guided tour in the morning, with the help of a tour booklet. Don't hesitate to ask for the children's booklet!
- in the afternoon, take a guided tour of the "Class of 1900": whether you're a child or an adult, start by putting on your black school uniform, taking a seat at a wooden desk and listening to the teacher talk about the daily life of schoolchildren at the beginning of the 20th century. You'll have the chance to write with a pen, and maybe even take part in a dictation!
