Montécheroux · Doubs · Bourgogne-Franche-Comté
The Museum of the Montécheroux Pliers, located in the Doubs in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, is dedicated to the history and craftsmanship of artisanal mesh pliers manufacturing. The museum traces over two centuries of manufacturing activity and displays a collection of tools and pliers bearing witness to the work of local artisans and their technical ingenuity. Its location in Montécheroux is part of the economic and cultural history of the village, marked by Lutheran tradition and isolation that shaped this specialized artisanal iron work. The visit, offered in guided form, is based on a thematic tour organized around history, religion and technique, complemented by forge demonstrations and a documentary film. The museum regularly hosts heritage and educational activities, particularly during heritage days.
