AUTOMATES AVENUE

A magical museum of clockwork actors

From 1920 to 1950
December is the month when the streets in front of the big Paris stores are completely blocked...

The Golden Age
... Crowds of children and parents, their noses glued to the shop windows, looking right and left, up and down. The animated scenes with several dozen clockwork figures fascinate the Paris crowds.

A Magical World
Automates Avenue offers the passer-by a dream trip through time and space. With these fascinating shop window actors, the magic of a bygone age comes to life again.

An Animated Museum
In the streets of Paris reproduced here, 3OO clockwork figures go through the gestures and mimicries of former days, creating an extraordinary spectacle.
