What makes it 63% Baby-Friendly: Infants enter free and strollers fit the lift, but narrow aisles, dim sound-effect rooms, and no confirmed changing table or nursing space make visits shorter and less comfortable.
Why 1–2 hours visit duration is ideal for with baby: Allows time to see key film props and miniatures without tiring your baby.
Explore original film props:
See authentic costumes, animatronics and special effects pieces from famous movies.
Tip: Begin on the ground floor to limit walking and keep your baby close to the stroller or carrier.
Marvel at hyper-realistic miniatures:
Admire Dan Ohlmann’s detailed 1/12-scale everyday scenes on the top floor.
Tip: Hold your baby close so they can see the tiny figures; use the stroller ramp for direct access.
Snap photos in immersive sets:
Pose with life-size backdrops from Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park and more.
Tip: Bring a soft blanket or toy to keep your baby calm during photo moments.

Walking through this museum felt like stepping straight back into my childhood (I was born in the mid-80s), and it was nothing short of magical.

Incredible and unique museum. They have some really cool pieces from films, which are still interesting to look at even if you haven’t seen them. The miniature section was a good surprise also—they are so detailed and realistic! While it is a bit on the more expensive side, it’s worth it and it is an independent business.

AMAZING! I think should be a must do when you visit Lyon with kids or just if you like movies and a different type of art. They have created incredible mini and real size scenes from movies and normal life things! A different way to know history as well!
