Musée d’Art et d’Histoire de Baugé-en-Anjou

Since time immemorial, the castle of Baugé has been attached to the Museum of Art and History to create an original and fun exhibition with free admission. In 2024, with the passage of the Olympic flame in Baugé-en-Anjou, it is a plunge into the local league sport that you propose: step into a circle of the Boule de Fort. True places of life and meeting, the circles of the ramparts are in the uncontaminated places of the Liger culture, a practical work attributed to the inventory of the intangible cultural heritage of France. Local sport nearby, the circles yearn each year for the challenges of friends. In the municipality of Baugé-en-Anjou, there are no more than 25 municipalities reporting on 15 municipalities that are registered. The exhibition presents this sport in an original way by addressing all susceptible associations interested in the staging and lighting of the Boule de Fort. In 2023, an exhibition was presented at the Baugé Castle as part of the Microfolie at the Numerical Museum (free exhibition at the Baugé Castle). Celle-ci is visible on November 3, 2024 (plus more information here). With this exhibition and in the squad of the JEP 2024, discover the fortress ball and its manufacturing secrets! Nicolas Bâtard, artisan ballpoint pen at the Morannes fortress, will be at your side as moderator throughout the weekend. Automatic meeting with this local savoir-faire-emblematique of the Ligérien region (free admission on September 21 and 22, 2024, from 10 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. and from 1.30 p.m. to 6 p.m.).
