Presentation of: Les Animaux de la Place
Come and discover the mechanical bestiary imagined by François Delarozière from La Machine: crocodile, sacred ibis, hippopotamus, Nile perch, dromedary... And become an actor as you operate these mechanical sculptures using levers and joysticks blended into the vegetation surrounding the pools.
These unique mechanical animals are free to visit.
The perch, hippopotamus and frogs are undergoing ten-year maintenance and will be back in top form in summer 2025.
