The Marcel's have been a strange family for a few decades in Marcel Aymé's country. Some will say that some people are crazy, where good humour and farce are omnipresent. Constituted as an association, it is the meeting between a woodcarver and his supplier. The family is now large, with about a hundred wooden carved characters called the "Marcel's", in homage to the famous writer.... A rural family, too, which depicts life in the past, tells the story of the arrival of the train in the village, the legend of the Vouivre or that of the "Pacolets" that haunt the forest. Guided by a soundtrack, you can visit a castle and its medieval street. Further on, in the deep forest where the "Marcel's jalopy" takes you, a storyteller tells other stories. The 2019 program is provided:

2 formulas for groups from 10am to 6pm. They will take place on June 16, July 6, 20, 21, August 24 and 25, September 14 and 15. You will have a show at the castle, a visit to the Marcel's village, a show, a reconstruction of the life of the castle, a meal but also a trip in a "Marcel's tacot" in the heart of the forest.

Other highlights of the season will be fleas on August 4, a fondue party on October 19 and Christmas lights on December 14 and 21. Information by phone or on the site.

Notre association a eu la joie de découvrir les baraques des "MARCELS" à VILLERS ROBERT, une merveilleuse visite remplie d'humour et de bonne humeur . mais nous apprenons tristement que cette association arrête son activité faute de repreneur ou d'aide financière. Toutes ces sculptures vont "mourir" c'est fort triste , c'est tout un savoir faire d' artistes qui disparaît

Super visite, une rencontre formidable avec un homme passionné, Marcel !
Plus qu'un art, une histoire, un monde qui mêle le réel et l'imaginaire.
Merci pour ce bon moment
