Culture and History
Livarot’s industrialisation in the 19th century also included the manufacture of cheese boxes. The old steam engine of Entreprises Leroy was initially used to generate electricity for a former flax spinning mill and subsequently for packaging Livarot cheese. It can be visited independently and free of charge; the keys are available from the media library.
Nature
The Écoparc de la Pipardière is a 1.8-hectare natural area in the immediate vicinity of Livarot’s town centre, with a network of three ponds. Information boards there provide visitors with information about biodiversity and the water cycle. A footpath connects the Écoparc de la Pipardière with the greenway; side paths lead to strategically important areas.
