Cultural activities

Immerse yourself in the heart of the Middle Ages as you wander the cobbled streets of Pérouges or explore the little-known treasures of Bugey's characterful villages. Costumed guided tours, intimate museums, bookbinding workshops, and artisan demonstrations… each experience promises a unique immersion in local history and heritage.

With family, friends, or alone, experience authentic cultural discoveries, punctuated by surprises and anecdotes that make the Ain plain so rich. Discover unique panoramas, between built heritage and unspoiled nature, for an unforgettable cultural getaway.

Practical advice for preparing your cultural outing

• Book in advance: Some tours and workshops have limited capacity, especially on weekends and during peak season.
• Check the hours: museums, exhibitions and workshops sometimes have variable hours depending on the seasons and holidays.
• Wear comfortable shoes: cobblestones, alleys and slight slopes in the historic villages.
• Plan for the weather: outdoor visits and possible queues for busy events.
• Adapt to children: identify family formats, short durations and fun workshops.
• Support local crafts: favor local purchases to keep know-how alive and leave with a unique souvenir.
