Museum eth Corrau

Ethnographic museum located in a house of the urban nucleus of Baguergue. It contains all of the domestic life of the Moga family and objects related with the rural world such as coaches, cowbells, carpenter’s tools or mining wagons.

Bagergue is an aldea dependent on the municipality of Naut Aran, in the terçó (own administrative division of the Val d’Aran) of Pujòlo. It is the highest population center of the valley, at an altitude of 1,419 meters. Its census of inhabitants does not reach a hundred.

Strolling through its cobbled streets we can find two points of interest: the Romanesque church of Sant Fèlix, which contains a pre-Romanesque funerary stele and a Gothic Christ, and the Eth Corrau Museum.

It is an ethnographic museum, which brings together about 2,500 ancient objects that evoke the domestic and working life of the territory in the past. Many formed part of the home of the Moga family where the museum is installed for several generations, but there are also others acquired or received as gifts, gathered with the purpose of elaborating a museum collection worthy of being visited.

We will find all type of tools used in the field: carts, mowing machines, shovels, pitchforks, sickles, scythes, cowbells, millstones, scissors and sheep shearing machines, carpenter’s and shoemaker’s tools, cornices, leather pieces, belts, wagons and uten mining silos.
