Immerse yourself in the heart of works of art and documentaries thanks to a selection of immersive 360° content: step into a Claude Monet painting, swim with dolphins, go into the stratosphere or discover Pompeii for a volcanic journey into the antiquity !
With its armchairs, tables and chairs, this space is also a friendly place where you can take the time to chat or browse the art books available to you. A cultural mediator welcomes you every day to guide you and advise you.
