Created in 1991, this unique French departmental museum traces the history of cardboard box manufacturing and printing in Valréas, the capital of French cardboard, from its origins in the mid-19th century to the present day.
The Musée du Cartonnage et de l'imprimerie is a beautiful tribute to the identity of Valréas, capital of French cardboard.
The exhibition deals with the manufacturing and printing of cardboard from the middle of the 19th century to the present day. The discovery of these two flourishing industries continues until the contemporary creations.
A long history put in boxes, all in shape and color!
