From October 17 to 31, discover the dark history of electricity at the Electropolis Museum!
Mad scientists, fatal accidents, and the most terrifying electrical experiments: your visit during the All Saints’ Day break will be filled with spine-chilling stories. Tour materials tailored to visitors’ ages: a game sheet for the youngest or a QR code to scan for the bravest.
A unique tour: be careful, because on Fridays, the fuses blow and the lights go out, leaving creatures to haunt its walls. The museum transforms into a veritable labyrinth where terror reigns. Will you manage to make it out alive?
