Texture presents three exhibition rooms and three stories.
The Cabinet of curiosities: Linen is a material used daily, often without knowing it and in unexpected places. Creators, scientists and entrepreneurs try to use the slightest particle of this plant. Discover, enjoy, smell and try linen in all its forms.
La Salle de la Lys tells the story of the flax industry. A story with ups and downs, a story of people who – without any help whatsoever – find, one after the other, enough strength to overcome deep crises. A fascinating story with, in the main roles, intellectuals, men of daring and action.
Under the golden crown is the Treasury. You can especially admire the sumptuous pieces in Damascus, lace, handmade works and refined fabrics that make all the richness of this exceptional collection of textile materials.
