Dive into History!
Beneath the heavy skies of the South Atlantic, Napoleon welcomes you into his final residence. Equipped with your virtual reality headset, you listen to the Emperor’s confidences and dive into his legend.As he recounts his memories, scenes come to life around you: the war council on the eve of the Battle of Austerlitz, a cavalry charge by the cuirassiers, the ascent of the Vendôme Column, the icy atmosphere of the Berezina, and the final journey to Saint Helena…
Before diving into the virtual reality experience, explore a unique exhibition showcasing authentic objects from Napoleon and his era: soldiers’ weapons and uniforms, paintings depicting key moments of the epic, and personal belongings of the Emperor.
These exceptional pieces come from the collections of the War Heritage Institute / Royal Army Museum.
