Saint-Philbert-le-Vieil

Saint-Philbert-le-Vieil is an outdoor entertainment park with multiple theater stages where actors in elaborate costumes perform historical scenes. The various performance areas spread across the grounds and offer different types of shows at different locations.

The park was founded in 1978 with the goal of bringing French history to life through dramatic performances. Since its opening, the site has developed into a large entertainment complex that continues to focus on historical storytelling.

Shows here tell French stories through theater, traditional music, and historical costumes that transport audiences into past eras.

The grounds are easy to explore on foot, with different areas connected by pathways. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and allow time to walk between the various shows.

A real Viking longship rises from the water during some performances, adding a spectacular element to the productions. Mounted riders and performers execute genuine combat scenes that bring the action close to the audience.
