Maurice Dufresne Parc & Collection

Maurice Dufresne, established his museum in Azay-le-Rideau in the mill of Marnay, the property which in 1026 belonged to Geoffroy de l’Ile. The hydraulic workings of the mill have been maintained and can be seen functioning. The 10,000 m2 of buildings, which house more than 3,000 antique machines and collection pieces, are found within a 67,000 m2 park of hundred-year-old trees.
