It is a good visit to learn how they make the calissons. We were on our own and it was fine, glad we didn’t pay for a guided visit. The virtual calisson making is a fun machine and you get a mini-calisson as a reward. The shop is nice, but prices are higher than your regular supermarket.

Just for fun because we were in the area, we stopped here and enjoyed watching this famous and delicious snack be made. Very interesting process and worth an hour or so of your time. Of course, had to buy a box but well worth it.

This museum is cleverly designed - film, giant black and white photos, vintage machinery you can touch, glass cabinets, and interactive technology. You can watch the factory floor from windows on high, and rent an audio guide (French or English) for €3.
