Museum of Illusions

About This Experience

Your experience

 

Located in the heart of Paris, the Musée de l’Illusion—the first of its kind in France—invites visitors of all ages to enjoy an exceptional multisensory experience. Whether with family, friends or colleagues, come and learn whilst having fun in a unique, fun-and-educational atmosphere.

 

The visit of the permanent exhibition is dotted with holograms, optical illusions of all kinds, and unusual pieces. The ‘Great Illusions’ plunge you into an extraordinary world, with its Vortex tunnel, Adelbert Ames room, Terrestrial Attraction room, infinity room and even an upside-down room! Enough to make you lose your footing! Look out for: The Clones Table, the Bottomless Well, the illusion of a hollow face and the ambiguous cylinder.

 

To finish your visit, head to the dilemma games room, a sort of fitness room for the brain, where, whatever your age, you can challenge yourself, and stimulate your mind, with puzzles, riddles, impossible knots, tricks and even mathematical games.
