The Friends of the Royal Bath Factory Association

The Friends of the Royal Bath Factory Association (AAMRB) has as its motto that of the historian Jules Michelet:

Non solum in memoriam, sed etiam in spem
(Looking at history, certainly, but in the service of hope)

It is a non-profit organization whose purpose is:

- to promote the proto-industrial, cultural and natural heritage of the Royal Bath Factory to the general public,

- to help with its conservation, maintenance, and beautification, in particular its historic buildings, parks and gardens, chapel and associated infrastructure (roads, canals, various networks)

- to enhance the site to address societal and civilizational challenges (climate, ecology, energy, economic, social, cultural, informational, digital, civic and ethical) in the spirit of its motto

- to promote this group through the organization of cultural events of all kinds.

Many events were organised in 2023 , on the occasion of the 290th anniversary of the Royal Factory (concerts, sound & light, meetings with artists...).

The year 2024 was dedicated to the memory of Julie Victoire DaubiƩ, the first woman in France to earn a baccalaureate degree, born at the Manufacture , and whose bicentenary we celebrated. Find all the events at www.julievictoiredaubie.fr

The year 2025 was dedicated to Biodiversity .

The year 2026 focuses on Visual Creative Arts, with around ten events organized from May to October.
