Perched over the Tarn river in the Madeleine quarter, the Vermicellerie is an old pasta factory. The site was remodeled starting in the 17th century and was transformed into a pasta factory in 1850.
The factory was decommissioned in the second half of the 20th century and was subsequently redesigned to house a hotel, the Musée Lapérouse, and the Comité départemental de tourisme.
The Vermicellerie is listed as a historic monument. Its architectural features include the grand staircase of building G1 and a monumental gate located between buildings F1 and E, which was inscribed by decree on October 11, 1984.
