Musée suisse du Blé et du Pain 4.1 APK

In the town of Echallens, located in the heart of the grain belt of the Gros de Vaud, the House of Wheat and Bread consists of 4 floors of exhibitions featuring the fabulous adventure of grain to bread. This 18th century farmhouse contains a rich collection of objects from the past that honors the ancestral farmer, miller and baker: from wild grasses to cultivated cereals, from the cereal pancake to sourdough bread, from old-fashioned harvesting to the high-tech combine harvester, from the ancient stone mill to modern milling facilities, to the wooden kneading trough to automated kneading. Audio-visual entertainment (for adults and children) introduces the visit and “The Path of the Little Seed” allows young visitors to go through the 20 stages in a fun and didactic way. The tour ends with the tasting of baked goods made right before your eyes in the bakery-café, the “Bakehouse of Cérès”.
