Accessible to all, these workshops are particularly aimed at amateurs wishing to experience handcrafted violin making.

Violin-making courses in Strasbourg

The lutherie courses take place in the heart of my workshop and immerse you directly in the lutherie atmosphere. They take place over a 5-day week, at a rate of 6 hours a day. I will accompany you as you build the instrument of your choice, according to the different options on offer. You'll also be assisted at every stage of the process, from roughing out the various parts to final assembly.

At the end of the course, you'll leave with the fruit of your labor. A fully finished and playable instrument for you to enjoy immediately.
