Souleilles Foie Gras
About This Museum
This isn't your typical hushed museum; it's a working farm where the star of the show is, you guessed it, foie gras. You get to see the entire process from the ducks waddling around outside to the final, beautifully prepared product. It’s a completely immersive dive into a craft that's deeply woven into the fabric of this region. Honestly, it makes you appreciate every bite in a whole new way.
Collection Highlights
The real 'exhibits' are living—the Mulard ducks themselves! But inside, you'll find fascinating old tools of the trade, like antique force-feeding funnels and copper pots, that tell the story of how this tradition has evolved over generations.
Visitor Information
Definitely book a guided tour to get the full story straight from the farmers. And don't even think about leaving without visiting their shop—the pâtés and terrines you can buy right there are incredible.
Architecture & Building
It's a classic, rustic Quercy farmhouse built from honey-colored stone, looking like it's been part of the rolling hills forever.
