About the location

Espace culturel Les 26 couleurs

Rue Pasteur 77310 Saint-Fargeau-Ponthierry

Seine-et-Marne
Île-de-France

Rehabilitated as a cultural space, the former power plant of the Leroy wallpaper factory houses all the original electrical machines and, since 1962, the 26-colour printing machine, unique in the world. The heritage of the plant (1986-2006) continued in parallel with the rehabilitation project and resulted in the opening of the cultural space Les 26 Couleurs in June 2011\. A performance and cinema hall, a multipurpose hall, a workshop hall and a restaurant have now replaced the coal storage areas and boilers used for steam and electricity production. Through a program mixing live show, cinema, plastic installations but also heritage, thanks to the enhancement of the past of the site Leroy and its actors, Les 26 Couleurs offers for the Heritage Days thematic and theatrical tours.
