    • It was a hundred years ago, and it was yesterday... What life did our grandparents lead before the First World War?

      This is what this unusual museum tells us, using miniature display cases at 1/12 scale which meticulously represent peasant or bourgeois interiors before the First World War.
      You will also see amazing dioramas that will take you to visit abandoned ruined places.


      It is a unique, magical place, an absolute must-see.


      You will take a journey into the past, and to different French regions while returning to your childhood, with the magical world of miniatures. You will discover peasant interiors and everyday objects of yesteryear, but in Gulliver's world, on the size of a doll's house...

    Exceptional, incredible. What a job! 👏👏Stunningly realistic. A wonderful discovery. The person who creates these miniatures is truly passionate. Everything is handmade (and I mean everything): the cutlery, the vegetables, even the potato peelings, etc. It's a shame this museum isn't better known. I highly recommend it. 👍👍👍
