Micro-Architectural Perfection in Old Lyon
Located in the heart of Vieux Lyon, the Musée Miniatures et Cinéma houses two unique collections across five historical floors: over 100 hyper-realistic miniature dioramas and more than 450 authentic movie special effects artifacts from major Hollywood studios.
The Art of Dan Ohlmann
Founded by world-renowned French miniaturist Dan Ohlmann, the miniature collection showcases micro-interiors crafted at an exact 1/12th scale. Every book, peeling wallpaper layer, cobweb, and wooden floorboard is recreated with astonishing fidelity using real wood, glass, and metal.
