As part of the European Heritage Days, the fascinating Tour aux Figures, a monumental sculpture by Jean Dubuffet, opens its doors to families for a guided tour that will transport participants to the universe imagined by the artist.
After having returned to the interior of a real monumental work whose interior is an amazing ascending labyrinth, the families will participate in a workshop of plastic arts in connection with the tower.
Attention: the climb of the tower is done by irregular steps and can be difficult for some audiences (from 6 years).

Jean Dubuffet’s 24-metre “Tower of Figures” was declared a historic monument on September 10, 2008\. It belongs to the series of «buildings» designed from 1967 within the cycle of «l'Hourloupe», utopian world concretized by the proliferation of sinuous lines. The “Tower of Figures” was restored in 2020\. A presentation area of the tower is accessible to all and open on Saturday and Sunday from 13:30 to 18:00 from 1 March to 31 October.
