Musée Cinéma et Miniature
About This Museum
People come here for the sheer 'wow' factor, to see if these impossibly detailed scenes are real. You'll find yourself leaning in, trying to spot the tiny loaf of bread in a miniature bakery or the miniature film star on a microscopic movie poster. Then you turn a corner and you're face-to-face with actual movie magic, like the alien creatures from 'Alien: Resurrection' or prosthetic masks so real they give you chills. It’s a place that plays with your sense of scale and reality in the most delightful way.
Collection Highlights
The hyper-realistic miniature scenes of French streets and shops are mind-boggling, but the real showstoppers are the full-scale movie props. Seeing the intricate animatronic face of 'The Mummy' or the gruesome special effects from 'Hellboy' up close is something you won't forget.
Visitor Information
It's tucked away in a gorgeous old building right in the heart of Vieux Lyon, so it's perfect for weaving into a day of exploring the city's historic cobblestone streets.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a beautiful, centuries-old building that was once a private mansion, its grand Renaissance architecture with ornate stonework makes the modern movie magic inside feel even more special.
