MATRIMOINE : à ta santé !
From Thursday 19 to Sunday 22 March 2026
Come and celebrate with us the 2nd edition of the Matrimoine Days in Wallonie Picarde in Lessines. After exploring the place of women in history and public space in 2025, this new edition honours women's health through a varied and committed programme.
Exhibition 'Both feet in the stirrups. What if women* had control over their private parts?' - Hôpital Notre-Dame à la Rose of Lessines, from June 27th to November 29th 2026. - Between practices that were not always consensual and instruments that have changed little since their inception, this exhibition aims to examine the role of men in the medicalisation and instrumentalisation of women’s intimate bodies. What if, from now on, women were to reclaim ownership of their intimate bodily experiences, becoming subjects of their own lives rather than objects to be conceded?
