La Maison du Père Castor - archives et réseau intercommunal de médiathèques
Description
Les Albums du Père Castor were created and directed by Paul Faucher from 1931 onwards. They have been translated into many languages, and are the fruit of the collaboration of artists, illustrators, authors and educators. Even today, this collection is a best-seller in children's literature. From his beginnings as a bookseller with Flammarion in 1921, to the manufacture and distribution of the Père Castor album collection, Paul Faucher methodically built up and collected his archives until his death in 1967. Since 2017, the archives have been listed on UNESCO's Memory of the World register, a program for the protection of documentary heritage. The archives can be consulted by appointment during opening hours at the Maison du Père Castor in Meuzac.
A Père Castor store enables visitors to purchase selected albums from the Père Castor collection
