CONFÉRENCE LES CAVES COOPÉRATIVES, UN PATRIMOINE MÉCONNU

As part of "Vignobles en Scène" and as a preview of the National Architecture Days:

Located in the heart of the medieval village of Aigne, in the Minervois region of the Hérault, La C%F2la occupies the former cooperative winery built between 1949 and 1951 by architect Paul Br%E8s and expanded in 1966 by Ren%E9 Villeneuve.
After standing vacant for more than fifteen years, the building was renovated by architect Yves Bour to become a space for contemporary creation, while preserving its raw aesthetic and winemaking heritage.
