Museum Night

At the Musée des Beaux-Arts

For this special occasion, discover the Musée des Beaux-Arts, located in the Louis XII wing of the château, from a different angle: the works come to life for our greatest pleasure!

"Re-creation at the museum"
A guide who gets carried away by the paintings, a visitor who becomes so intoxicated by the works that he can't tell art from reality. How can they get along?
Spoken, danced and even sung interactions between the audience, cheerful actors and the works of art will give you a different perspective on the château's collections and renew your enthusiasm for visiting a museum.

"Selected pieces" with Lou-Ann
Lou-Ann, a Master's student in Heritage and Museums, invites you to set off in search of a "chosen morsel". Observation and the search for an unusual detail are the key words of this fun activity, which will reveal the secrets of the works on display.

"When portraits come to life
What better way to make a painting your own than by recreating a scene? Strike a pose, recreate the same setting, dress in the style of, not forgetting to add your own personal touch!
Come and applaud the work of 6 pupils from Marcel Buhler primary schools in Blois, who were inspired by the story of the painted characters.

Immersive special effects and monumental projections take over the grandiose architecture of the courtyard. A castle that collapses, trembles in the face of Catherine de Médicis, or a Duke of Guise more alive than ever: loves, dramas and secrets swirl around the 4 façades, in turn sublimated or simultaneously revealed in a unique 360° show.

House of Magic

You can also cross the Place du Château and meet the magicians from the Maison de la Magie, who are making the place their own. Their magic tricks, optical illusions and mysterious technical feats will leave you breathless.
