A weekend dedicated to craftsmanship and nature
The Journées Nature et Artisanat de Bruère-Allichamps take place every year in May, generally on the first weekend of the month. Organized by the association Les Amis du Prieuré d'Allichamps, with the support of the Bruère-Allichamps town hall, these days offer a market of artisans and producers in the exceptional setting of the Prieuré Saint-Étienne d'Allichamps.
Market of art artisans and local producers
The weekend brings together art artisans offering traditional creations and know-how: pottery, sculpture, woodworking, textiles, metalwork, jewelry, leather goods. Local producers present their regional products: honey, goat cheeses, organic vegetables, jams, breads, wines, and craft beers. This market allows you to discover the artisanal and gastronomic riches of Berry.
The Prieuré Saint-Étienne d'Allichamps
The Journées take place in the remarkable setting of the Prieuré Saint-Étienne d'Allichamps, a Romanesque building from the 12th century located in Bruère-Allichamps. This Benedictine priory, closely linked to the Noirlac Abbey, features sober and harmonious Cistercian architecture. The site includes a Romanesque church, monastic buildings, and a garden. The Journées Nature et Artisanat are an opportunity to visit this exceptional heritage.
Activities and demonstrations
Throughout the weekend, craft demonstrations allow you to discover the gestures and techniques of the art trades. Activities punctuate the days: traditional music, workshops for children, guided tours of the priory and the garden. The friendly atmosphere encourages exchanges between artisans, producers, and visitors.
