Presentation

With a series of games involving your senses, the visitor discovers the village of Saint-Antoine, its architecture, the views, the sounds of a medieval village. After this experience, you will no longer see Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye in the same way.

It all starts at the Porterie, a magnificent building with a glazed tile roof. You go down to the bottom of the village and the game begins: it's up to you to spot the color given by the guide. What if you drew on the ground? The guide gives you the instructions and you start drawing what you see on the ground. Ephemeral works of art that allow you to understand the structure of the village.
Then begins the stroll through the village. Unusual objects are found on your path: will you find them?
What if we appeal to your senses? Blindfolded, in pairs, touch and feel the stone, pebbles, wood, walls and facades of the houses in the village. From Rue du Milieu to the suburbs, the village can be discovered at your fingertips.
What if you drew again but this time, upside down? Fun, right? Go back to your childhood and try to draw the houses of the suburbs and the Big Wall.
The suburb can be discovered by touch and sight. Spot architectural elements, sculptures, flowers and other objects in the suburb, you will be surprised by its richness.
It is now time to go back towards the abbey. With eyes hidden, an impressive door is revealed with your fingertips. Ouch, that stings!
The western facade of the abbey church is teeming with details. Observe it carefully and test your memory through the game! What if you discovered the interior of the church not with your eyes but with your hands and smells. Feel, touch, smell the atmosphere of the abbey church.
And finally, a surprise at the end. Shh... You won't know any more!
