Maison de Jour de Fête
The Maison de Jour de Fête is a small museum dedicated to a classic French film and its filming location. It features three-dimensional film scenes with sound, original footage, and set designs that bring the film's story to life.
The film was shot in this small village in 1949 and became a masterpiece of French cinema. The museum was later created to preserve the memory of this important moment in film history and connect the village to its cinematic past.
The house takes its name from Jacques Tati's 1949 film, which was shot in this village and tells the story of a postman and his daily life. The location reflects how the community values this cinematic heritage that shaped their village's identity.
Visits typically last about one hour, and you can move at your own pace with breaks to view scenes or ask questions. The site is accessible for people with disabilities, with facilities to ease their visit.
The museum uses a special technology called Scénovision that displays film scenes in three dimensions with sound, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the film's story. This immersive experience is uncommon for small museum facilities and makes the visit especially engaging.
