Merveilleux petit lieu qui mérite que l'on y consacre le temps d'une vraie visite. Superbe accueil, le processus de visite est à la fois ludique et instructif : courtes vidéos alliées à des mises en scènes qui permettent de découvrir et de comprendre l'art de la marionnette. Un petit bijou portuant.

Probably the most interesting part of our trip. We do try to find unusual museums when we travel and this was it! The displays are interesting to look at. They have clips from the shows on the information screens. The info screens can do multiple languages. There is a part where you can create your own puppet show which was fun to fiddle around with. There was only one other group of 3 there, so we did in fact have some time for it. Mind you, it was a Sunday. We loved it and regretted not knowing about it before we arrived. We'd love to see one of their shows in theater. They only take cash onsite, but you can also buy tickets online. It is very affordable and easy to fit into a stroll around the city.
