    • A few minutes from Dax, between the pine forest and the Pyrenees, Chalosse, with its fertile and hilly landscape, offers another face of the Landes.

      Formerly made up of varied agricultural crops (vineyards, cereals, orchards, meadows), the Chalossais bocage is a land of high gastronomic tradition, renowned for its foie gras and its authentic labeled beef.

      A richly furnished mansion, the garden and the sharecropping house, the cellar and its astonishing press, the vine conservatory, the working bread oven, the animals... At the Domaine de Carcher, everything evokes the agricultural and wine-growing Chalosse of the 19th century.

      Equipped with a media library, a public service, a temporary exhibition room, the Chalosse Museum is a veritable conservatory of the Chalosse identity, with its beliefs, its know-how and its techniques. An authentic place, inhabited and welcoming, for the whole family, in the image of this generous, gourmet and festive land!

    Very interesting museum of art and popular traditions. Very nice view of the countryside. The different buildings tell the life of a wealthy landowner family of the 19th and 20th centuries. To do. Reduced rates for MGEN members.😉

    Pleasant museum to visit and instructive to learn about the life of our elders in Chalosse and their heritage. Very well located museum with stunning views of a herd of cows and oxen grazing peacefully. I particularly appreciate the soft sound of the bells they have around their necks!
