Maison des Marionnettes

Introduction

The Maison des Marionnettes is home to the small world of the Talabar theater company. It's an exhibition space, a place to handle puppets, experiment with shadow theater and interactive games. A magical moment to share with the whole family!

During your visit, you'll discover what goes on behind the scenes: girdle puppets, rod puppets, silhouettes, the castelet, hidden manipulation, the marotte... you'll know all the secrets. You'll become a puppeteer for a moment.
To complete the discovery of the art of puppetry, and in partnership with the puppeteers of the Compagnie Théâtre Talabar, we offer puppet-making workshops, shows (dates available at www.theatretalabar.com) and organize the "à 2 mains" festival.

We have also been running 2 interactive games (sensory games) since 2023.

Open Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays from 3pm to 6pm, during school vacations.

Admission: €3 per visitor aged 3 to 107!

Group visits possible all year round, by appointment. Free admission for accompanying adults. Maximum 12 people at any one time.
