We wanted to make this museum a unique place in Montélimar. It traces the history of nougat, what is special about Montélimar nougat as well as the story of the Arnaud Soubeyran business.
The visit takes you through the kitchens to savour the delicious atmosphere.
Adults are audio-guided by the voices of Marguerite and Mathieu Soubeyran on a light-hearted, fun stroll, full of anecdotes.
Children have a leaflet to follow a children’s trail with games and riddles to discover the world of nougat.
A journey back in time
Return to the heyday of Montélimar nougat through film clips and photos from the 1950s.
