Add to my Google Calendar

The collections at Château de Chantilly are home to some amazing creatures: mischievous monkeys, majestic dragons and fantastic chimeras. They are hidden in the paintings, sculptures and decor... Come and meet them as a family and be surprised by the fascinating stories and legends behind each one.

During the visit, young and old alike will be able to observe the details, marvel at the sculpted fantasies and listen to the anecdotes that bring these fantastic beings to life. To bring this exploration to a creative close, everyone can give free rein to their imagination by drawing their own chimera, combining invention and fantasy in a fun and friendly workshop.

An original adventure that transforms the castle into a playground of imagination, perfect for sharing a cultural and creative moment with the whole family!
