Must see · History Museum · Specialty Museum

Visit L'Aventure du Sucre, a museum housed in the former Beau Plan sugar factory. A range of informative and interactive exhibits introduce you to the story of sugar in the country, providing insight into the general history of Mauritius, slavery in the country, and the rum industry. After some 200 years of production, the factory closed its doors in 1999. Much of the machinery remains in place, however, and locals who once worked here now run tours of the facility, offering a first-hand account of agricultural life in the country. L'Aventure du Sucre is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our , world travel planner Edition.

L'Aventure du Sucre in Pamplemousses is fantastic. Full history not only of sugar on the Island - but the Island itself. Very informative and well documented - very interesting. Staff are helpful..... more »

Very nice place to understand the history of the island and how the sugar can was collected! The museum is very interesting. We loved spending 3 hours there.

It is really worth a trip. Here you can learn everything about the sugar industry in Mauritius in an original sugar factory. The exhibition need not shy away from comparison with international industrial museums. Really great. Entry costs money.
