Impaired visitors
In order to provide a cultural offer to as many people as possible, it is important to consider the diversity and specific needs of all audiences. Thus, La Maison de la Vache qui rit offers a museographic tour and workshops adapted to facilitate access and visits for people with disabilities.
A reception labelled by the Tourism and Disability Association (for motor, hearing, visual and intellectual disabilities).
