About this museum
Perched on the Mayenne River's edge, the Bateau - lavoir Saint - Julien offers a glimpse into Laval's historic washing traditions. This unique riverside structure once served as a communal laundry site where local women gathered to clean and wring clothes during summer months. Visitors can freely explore this preserved architectural landmark and imagine the social rhythms of 19th - century riverside life.
