Musée de la Mécanique Naturelle
Three mechanic brothers have been bringing engines back to life since 1966: pumps and hydraulic machines from the United States, Poland, England and France, farm machinery straight out of 'Modern Times' and a veneer saw of 1824 that slices precious woods to a tenth of a millimetre – all in working order.
