"Entering the Pottery of Mesnil de Bavent is entering the world of potters, as it existed centuries ago, a magical place conducive to walking and historical discovery. Buildings more than a century and a half old house craftsmen whose working methods are still the same.”

La Poterie du Mesnil de Bavent has been an artisanal business since 1842. On site, roofing accessories are manufactured, including ridge spikes, punches, crested ridges and interior and exterior architectural elements. It is rare and authentic know-how in a unique place. Craftsmen of Heaven!

The pottery has a museum space, a shop and exhibition rooms. It is possible to see the manufacturing work through the windows.

The “Pottery Village” is located on the site. You will discover year-round craftsmen and second-hand dealers. Some shops are ephemeral: renewal and great discoveries guaranteed! The opening hours of each store vary depending on the presence of each person. To find out about the artisans present, do not hesitate to call La Poterie.
