The Mediterranean Pottery Museum is housed inside an old oil mill. Take a tour of the Mediterranean and learn more about the day-to-day life of Mediterranean civilizations, through the pottery they left behind.

Two major collections are presented:
- A collection of traditional glazed earthenware from Saint-Quentin-la-Poterie, and a collection of pipes and 'terraillettes' from the Job Clerc factory.
- A collection of 700 glazed, rough and utilitarian pottery pieces from around the Mediterranean, with various functions, including water transport, cooking, grain storage etc.

The Museum covers an area of approximately 400 m² (2 floors, 11 rooms) and contains more than 1200 pieces of pottery.

Every year from April to October, a temporary exhibition is presented on a theme, a period, a ceramic trend.
