Description

The puppets? An art!
The only museum in France devoted to this living art, the museum invites you to discover the mysteries of puppetry!

From Guignol to Kermitterrand of the Bébête show, how do these objects come to life in the hands and imagination of puppeteers?

Around a new selection of forty puppets, immersive scenography alternates discovery and experimentation. The visitor discovers, listens, remembers, manipulates.

The new path of the Puppet Arts Museum is designed for an audience of all ages and to bring dialogue between generations.
