Musée valaisan des Bisses

Founded in 2009, the museum settled in the Maison Peinte (Botyre) in 2012. The institution has three key roles related to the "bisses" heritage: preservation, transmission, and research. Since its opening, the museum has offered a permanent exhibition dedicated to the history of the bisses through the centuries, spread across ten rooms. Over the past ten years, the museum has created 14 temporary exhibitions, organized over 200 events, cataloged 280 bisses on its website, preserved more than 2,000 documents and 400 objects, and welcomed over 30,000 visitors to the Maison Peinte.
