Guise, in the 19th century. It was here that industrialist André Godin built the Familistère, a veritable monument to France's industrial heritage, and that for over 120 years he paved the way for a "Concrete Utopia" by implementing astonishing social innovations.
Led by Godin, the experience takes you back to the origins of this project. Along the way, enigmas are revealed and symbolic riches are discovered and shared with local residents, in a collective effort to build a "Palace" for better living together. This experience invites participants to become aware of the importance of a better distribution of the wealth produced by work, and of the urgent need for everyone to commit to a more equitable future.
