A history told in 100 events. This exhibition is presented as a "fresco" of events highlighted by the residents themselves, unfolding the contemporary evolution of the commune and its villages, in all fields.
All the elements presented were collected in person, through direct interviews with local residents. They cover the themes and issues typical of a rural commune in the high mountains: access - roads and transport, the evolution of agriculture, the development of winter sports, forestry, tourism, daily life, the development of year-round crafts, trades, businesses and services, natural disasters, religion and built heritage.

Visitors stroll along this fresco and travel through time, discovering the links between all these events, as well as the obstacles to be overcome.
In addition to contributions from the town council and local residents, this original exhibition also features contributions from Arvieux schoolchildren, former mayors, the Parc Naturel Régional du Queyras and the library.
