Puy du Fou has won hearts in 45 years. Voted best park in the world in 2012 and 2014 in the United States, the famous Vendée park continues to attract more and more visitors each year, and to develop internationally, with a new park in Spain, shows in Holland and soon in the United States. If the stories developed by Puy du Fou seduce, it is thanks to the emotions they convey, but also to the engineering treasures deployed by the teams. The teams do not hesitate to call upon the best talents in the aeronautical or automobile industries to guarantee the reliability and robustness of the mechanisms that contribute to making the park a global flagship of innovation in the service of the show.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Puy du Fou's falconry show uses over 600 birds, many trained to return to specific actors mid-battle.
The park was founded by Philippe de Villiers, a right-wing politician who saw historical spectacle as nationalist education—making its global expansion deliciously complicated.
