Presentation

Interactive, fun and educational, this museum takes you on an aquatic journey to discover the element of water.

Through different themes such as the water cycle, water in the body, natural disasters or even a 3D ocean dive, it guarantees relaxation and thrills for young and old.

At the entrance to the Parc du Vercors, the Water Museum opens onto Pont-en-Royans, one of the most curious villages in Dauphiné, a listed site of hanging houses (listed as historical monuments since 1944); a village where everything revolves around water.

Explore the waters of the world and the Vercors massif in two interactive exhibition rooms: weather quiz, climate tunnel, ludisphere...

3D film: 20000 leagues under the sea (cartoon inspired by Jules Verne's novel), the world of sharks (by JM Cousteau).

Sample the world's rarest and finest waters at the Water Bar with its collection of over 1700 bottles from around the world.

Since 2018 exhibition in partnership with Electricité de France: From water to electricity (Salle des eaux du Vercors)
