DESCRIPTION

The exhibition “Conserver le souvenir …Se souvenir pour conserver” wishes to acquaint people with traditional products and explain how methods of food preservation developed over the centuries.
The restoration of various parts of the typical home provides an opportunity to find out about traditional eating habits and visitors can learn more through explanations in dialect and role-plays.
In mountain areas such as Introd, where the land is barren for long periods and cannot be cultivated all-year-round, people could only settle after having developed the necessary resources to survive between one harvest and the next. They had to study methods for preserving food using various natural and chemical factors such as: a cold climate, salting, drying, smoking, storing without air or light.
