In Seillans, Maître Savonitto lets visitors watch a working soap factory from a showroom directly overlooking the production workshop. People come both to understand the manufacturing techniques and to discover the finished products.
Can you watch the soap being made?
Yes. The shop offers a direct view of the team and production stations. During the visit, the manufacturing processes are explained to visitors. For safety and hygiene reasons, visitors do not usually enter the production area itself.
Are there actual workshop tours?
In high season, the factory organises one free group tour each week and opens the workshop doors. Booking is offered by the company.
Before you visit
The showroom is advertised as open Monday to Friday, continuously from 08:00 to 17:00. It is accessible to people with disabilities.
What makes this stop interesting on a visit to the Pays de Fayence is that it showcases a craft still in operation: visitors are not watching a reconstruction, but a team genuinely making products on site.
