This museum is the birthplace of cinema, set in the former home of the Lumière brothers, who invented the cinematograph. The building itself is a beautiful mansion, and inside you’ll find original film equipment, early movie reels, and interactive displays that show how movies started.
- See the actual cinematograph, the first movie camera ever made.
- Walk through rooms where the first films were shot.
- Check out rare film posters, vintage cameras, and cool movie gadgets.
- Interactive exhibits let you try out old-school film techniques.
- See Where Movies Began: This is the spot where the first motion pictures were created. If you like movies or tech, it’s wild to see the OG camera and the place where it all started.
- Hands-On Fun: The museum isn’t just for looking—there are interactive parts where you can play with early film tricks and see how special effects were made before computers.
- Unique House Vibes: The building is a mansion with beautiful architecture and gardens, so it’s not your average museum. It feels like stepping into a piece of history.
- Booking tickets a few days in advance is recommended, especially on weekends.
- No special dress code, but comfy shoes are a good idea since you’ll be walking and standing.
- Best time to visit is in the morning to avoid crowds and have more time with the exhibits.
