Association of Friends of the Museum of Hunting and Nature

Founded by François Sommer (1904–1973) and his wife Jacqueline (1913–1993), the Foundation was recognised as a public-interest institution by decree on 30 November 1966.

It works to foster a peaceful dialogue among all those who use nature, hunters and non-hunters alike.

It seeks to spread the values of a humanist ecology throughout society and to act with sincerity, respecting human dignity, for the sustainable use of natural resources.
