Donation of the month

Each month we will present an object that has been generously donated to the Museum.

 

Here is the donation for November 2026 !

In November, you can enjoy the beautiful fall scenery, relax at home, or take the opportunity to visit a museum!

The Musée Beaulne, for example, houses a large collection of artifacts of all kinds.

During your visit, you can learn more about history through our themed exhibitions. This year, we showcased buttons! This collection was made possible through donations from several individuals.

Buttons have a fascinating history! Did you know that a button collector is called a phillumenist?

Here are a few examples from the Musée Beaulne's collection!
