Culture and history
The Laiterie de Massais was founded in 1905. La Corbata Rosa, a professional independent contemporary art gallery, is located on the site of the former cooperative Laiterie de Massais. There, it presents an extensive cultural programme featuring exhibitions, workshops, meetings, performances and concerts.
The former cooperative Laiterie de Massais is particularly representative of the establishment, influence and development of dairy cooperatives in Poitou-Charentes. It was known for its butter bearing the Charentes-Poitou designation and its numerous types of cheese. Saint Eutrope was venerated in Massais, where a pilgrimage was organised every year.
