Lyon: admission ticket to Brochier Soieries Silk MuseumEntrance ticket

130 years of the history of a Lyon silk company through its work with haute couture and artists. A familly with an uncommon thirst for innovation.
Five minutes from the Place Bellecour, the newly opened Musée des Soieries Brochier provides both an interface and a history of the Maison de Soierie Brochier, the silk house, created in 1890 by the Brochier family and, four generations down the line, still thriving today. Unsurprisingly, there are examples in the museum of the House's close links with the world of fashion and the superb fabrics created for legendary fashion designers, as well as collaborations with some of the greatest contemporary artists. But the museum also features some of the company's pioneering technical textiles and their use in fields as diverse as health care, agronomy and aeronautics.

In the heart of the city of Lyon, within the prestigious walls of the Grand Hotel Dieu, the new Musée des Soieries Brochier is now open.
We invite you to explore 130 years in the history of a prominent Lyon family that set out in the silk industry in 1890: 4 generations, 9 Brochiers and hundreds of thousands of metres of silk, woven and printed for the greatest names in haute couture and the arts have been involved over a period of more than a hundred years.

Come and admire dresses by Hubert de Givenchy, Christian Lacroix, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent and Nicolas Fafiotte, created with fabrics from the Brochier silk house.
And discover textile designs by such 20th century masters as Miró, Calder and Cocteau that reflect the Brochier family’s close involvement with artists.

Discover also how a thirst for innovation made it possible to adapt the Jacquard loom for the production of technical fabrics for Concord nose cones, rainforest canopy rafts, and the Venus balloon probes. And learn how silk thread is now woven with optical fibres to produce the fabrics of the future.

The Musée Soieries Brochier is the ideal starting point for a visit to Lyon that combines heritage with history. The museum shop is open to the public and offers a wide range of hand-painted, 100% silk and velvet squares made in Lyon in the silk weaving mills and printing workshops of Brochier Soieries.
