Museum of Sound Discovery

Place de l’hôtel de ville
89170 Saint-Fargeau

Unique in Europe due to its collections and overall theme, the Musée de l’Aventure du Son displays a collection of more than 1000 gramophones, radios, and mechanical musical instruments.

Housed in an old convent from the 17th century in the centre of St. Fargeau, the historical capital of Puisaye, the museum and its team take visitors on a tour of the history of sound discovery : from mechanical musical instruments that still work to this day to the very first gramophones of the early 1900s up to 1960s.

Furthermore, the museum gives visitors the opportunity to explore the world of radio, from the earliest experiments to transistor radios.
