A fun tour for the whole family, featuring the poetic creations of La Machine company
A blue-eyed minotaur, 13 m high, strolling through the streets alongside a giant spider: what a show! These are the poetic creations of La Machine, to whom the people of Nantes owe their mechanical elephant, and it's here in the Montaudran district. A fun visit for the whole family. Ask the Véritables Machinistes to activate the bread catapult, the plant caressing machine or the horn organ. Take a seat on a beetle for an unforgettable ride on the fabulous Carré Sénard merry-go-round. Store and café.

Members' reviews on THE MACHINE HALL
The ratings and reviews below reflect the subjective opinions of members and not the opinion of The Little Witty.
Exposition ludique.
A faire avec les enfants.
Beaucoup de démonstrations de machines.
Très bien mangé au café attenant la halle.
Sinon je recommande le déjeuner dans la halle directement (~65€) qui est une expérience unique.
