Tuffeau, brick, slate, timber and raw earth shape the architectural story told by Matières à patrimoine. Produced by the region’s Heritage and Inventory Department, the exhibition follows building materials from medieval practice to the present. Flint, metal and cob widen the picture, showing how substances used for both structures and decoration define Centre-Val de Loire’s built landscape.
