Welcome to the Noria website, the Water Space !


The XIIIth century watermill of Saint Jean du Bruel has accommodated NORIA since its restoration in 2000.
Exhibiting on 1000m² split up into 20 rooms, it will allow you to appreciate better the stakes linked with water, as yesterday, just like today or tomorrow, water is an essential element to life.
From stake to game, The Water Space offers an educational journey around water, contemplative, interactive and fun in a place grooved by the river « La Dourbie ».
This space is open as well for senior citizens as for schools and families. Information, attractions and interactions invite the visitors to reflect on the essential role of water for our ancestors, in our daily life and in the future of humanity.
