The Biopark is temporarily hosting Janus, a unique two-headed Greek tortoise, during the renovation of the Museum. Each head of this male tortoise has its own independent brain, which sometimes makes its movements challenging. In captivity, Janus receives attentive care, resulting in an impressive lifespan of 26 years.
Step into the workshop of engraver Georges Hantz and discover his world. Walk around his workbench, examine engraved plates and prints, and peer at the many objects he collected. Notice textures, inked lines and tiny tools that shape metal and paper. Listen to stories about craftsmanship and watch images emerge from plates. This quiet, curious visit lets children explore art through looking, touching details and imagining how prints are made.
