MUSEUM OF AUTOMATONS AND SCALE MODELS
Read moreLocated near the Media Center and just two steps away from a beautiful oceanic walk, these museums are a pretty stop. If you arrive from the city, you need to take your car! Choose the smuggler who will take you up to here in a moment. The Automates Museum, first of its kind in France and opened since 1984, has some prestigious pieces. It offers the joy of watching a collection of ancient figurines from all over Europe. The research has been thorough: sales rooms, antique dealers, granaries, department stores… the result is up to the height, with automates dating back to the nineteenth century and those commercials of the 1950 s, but also historical reconstructions like this district of Montmartre in the early twentieth century, with its shops and windows. The Museum of Reduced Models, nestled right next door, also offers a trip to childhood in the small world of imaginary. The visit is more classical and allows you to admire, among other things, models of boats facing in a naval battle or referring to the Great Discoveries and of course railway circuits.
THE MUSEUM OF THE TREASURES OF LISETTE
Read moreThis small museum - opened in 1998 - is located in the small village of Archingeay. Installed in the old school of the village, it allows a dive in the beginning of the XXth century.

Not to be missed after the tour: a magnificent collection of boxes (1880-1930).
