Carrières des Lumières

We really enjoyed this. Well worth the $. The masterpieces also are semi animated with some movement. Also impressive to see a quarry where much of the stone in the buildings we see must have come from. This is the only venue for this in Europe although there are others in the world.

The quarries were dug out over the years to extract the limestone. Masterpieces are projected onto the huge walls, pillars and floors of the quarry. with over a hundred video projectors project images onto more than 7,000 m² of floor space. The current show is called From Vermeer to Van Gogh, the Dutch Masters. This digital creation presents the genius of the Painters of the North with a veritable immersion in authentic painting, close to nature and its subjects.もっと詳しく
