The Filature des Calquières is an industrial museum located in Langogne, in the French department of Lozère. It houses unique machines from 1850 that are used to process wool. This museum offers a unique opportunity to witness the workings of these historical machines, providing a glimpse into the industrial past of the region.
Since 2015, the Filature des Calquières has undergone significant enhancements. The town hall of Langogne, which owns the building, purchased the adjacent house, allowing for the expansion of the shop, the installation of a carousel with dynamic cinema, an elevator serving all floors, and a larger exhibition gallery. These improvements have made the museum more accessible and engaging for visitors.
The Filature des Calquières is not just a museum, but also a historical monument. Both the building and the machines it houses are listed in the inventory of historical monuments. This recognition underscores the cultural and historical significance of the museum and its contents.
