In Mons, at the heart of a hilltop village in Pays de Fayence, Maison Monsoise preserves the setting of daily life in times gone by. This is no abstract reconstruction: visitors discover authentic features of an old house, including the potager, the bugadier used for traditional laundry, and the large fireplace with its stone hearth. A short visit that brings the domestic routines of rural Provence back to life.
A little something extra
The house tells local history through the lives of its residents, and the visit is easy to combine with a walk through the narrow streets of Mons and the trail of old trade signs.
Good to know before you visit
The visit lasts around 30 minutes and can be guided on request. In 2026, the tourist office advertises €3 full price and free admission for several categories. It is advertised as open in particular on Friday mornings, excluding public holidays: confirm opening times and visiting conditions before travelling. The tourist office states that the museum is not wheelchair accessible.
