1 review of Ecomuseum of the Salt Marshes

Salt museum

In this small center which can be found next to Fier d'Ars, salt is a treasure that is stored in small bags and jars. You can learn the secrets and techniques related to the production of sea salt on the ground in a salt mine which is located on the island. From the evaporation circuit to the journey of seawater through the Vasais (salt water reservoir dam decantation). It is curious to observe how in the latest salt mining areas, the water reaches saturation and the salt crystallizes. If you think this job is easy, you can judge for yourself and see if you would make a good salt producer. Grab the salt utensils and show what you have learned at the museum.
