The Casseaux kiln museum is a listed site dedicated to one of the world?s most famous ceramics, Limoges porcelain. Built in 1900, this so-called "reverse-flame" kiln is 20 meters high and 8 meters in diameter. It could hold up to 15,000 pieces. This 19th-century industrial building traces the history of this art industry through its technical and artistic aspects, as well as its social history. The museum contains a rich collection of archival photographs illustrating the work of workers in Limoges porcelain factories. The tour takes in a number of showcases illustrating the milestones in the history of porcelain.
