MAY 1ST - 2020

It is the story of May 1st in the sixteenth century with the king of France Charles IX who decided to offer his subjects a “lucky charm” through a Lily of the valley





But he didn’t know that this flower is a very dangerous poison when eaten or even just drinking the water in which they are kept.
The French poor people, who were very hungry in this period because of a famine, ate in their soup & drank the water of this beautiful white plant and died through different terrible ways.




We can finally
ask ourselves and decide if we should or not offer this Lily of the Valley to our enemies or our friends?

If you want to visit monuments of this period of the Renaissance, where the kings of France were living, we suggest you to visit the chateaux’s located outside Paris in the charming Loire valley.

SPIESTHE EXHIBITION 

15 October 2019

to 9 August 2020



Who hasn’t dreamt of discovering the best kept secrets of espionage? Clichés and fantasies abound about the work of intelligence agents, but where is the actual line between truth and fiction in these stories filled with hidden microphones, miniature cameras, uncertain identities, and clandestine operations?


This new temporary exhibition proposes a unique scenario developed from a passionate, attentive study of espionage that reveals what goes on behind the scenes. The principle mission of the civil servants and military personnel who work for the six main French intelligence agencies – known by their acronyms (DGSE, DGSI, DRM, DRSD, DNRED and Tracfin*) – is to anticipate and prevent threats to national security. The visitor will proceed step by step, like a secret agent, collecting information by using the different methods and tools of intelligence agencies.A unique experience mixing reality and fiction, co-produced by Universcience and TOP – The Oligarchs Productions and Federation Entertainment.
