The artisan blacksmiths, realize, transform or restore metal objects whose realization involves mainly manual skills, but also the memory and history of the profession.
Our blacksmiths are " memory keepers " and pass on some of their skills during our blacksmithing courses. They are the guardians of living traditions and endangered knowledge. They thus contribute, by their profession and thanks to the courses they give, to maintain our material and immaterial heritage.
Participate in the preservation of this heritage and book your personalized forging course with one of the MuFer blacksmiths!
