Throughout the year, artists and creators take over the museum spaces of the Plaine de l'Ain to share their perspective on the world. Painting, photography, sculpture, children's workshops, and immersive installations: the exhibitions are all opportunities to be moved, to reflect, or simply to marvel. Whether at the Cerin Paleoecological Museum, where fossils tell the story of a vanished tropical lagoon, the Ambérieu-en-Bugey Railway Workers' Museum, which traces the working memory of the railway, or the Vieux Pérouges Museum, nestled in a medieval house in the heart of the village, each venue offers a unique immersion in local heritage. Even the Château des Allymes, perched on the heights, combines historic fortifications and temporary exhibitions in a striking setting. Let yourself be surprised by a playful approach accessible to all.
