The Insane Historical Theme Park With No Rides 

I had no idea it existed so thank you for this! So interesting

I’ve never heard of this park, but I’m so impressed with the scale and detail of all of these shows! If you need further help translating French content like this, feel free to reach out!

I just stumbled on Puy du Fou, even though I know France very well. Certainly, they do no outreach outside of Europe. While it features European history, I think Americans would still be interested. Will try to go during my next trip.

What no France theme park built around the history of stinky cheese I am offended

@@jonnym4670 That's Roquefortworld. Ironically, due to copyright concerns, their mascot is not a mouse. : )

i'm french and visited it in 2014 it was absolutely amazing and i'm sure it has so many upgrades now

There is a puy du fou in spain and i think they are planning to build one in England

@@gaspardcaux5294 And one in The Netherlands

Honestly, I'm not really surprised something like this spawned out of France rather than anywhere else. They're definitely here for the drama lol

The Puy du Fou company is actually working with the Cherokee Nation to create one of their giant shows for a new entertainment and retail complex, "The 407: Gaeway to Adventure", near the Smokey Mountains of Tenessee! So you might not get the full efect but you can see their technical knowledge and experience at work soon!

If this place really grabs you, plan a trip, thats what im gonna do, if i had known this existed earlier in life you can bet id be either try and get a job over there or something similar, this looks like the coolest place on the planet where you can see ancient stuff in real time

The park supplies translator devices. When I visited 15 years ago they were radio receivers. Now it's probably a app.

There's live translation available on your phone through the app, don't miss it!

Massacres dans la Vendée de l'époque c'est à dire le département actuel + le pays de Retz ( sud est de la Loire Atlantique ) + le pays Bressuirais ( Nord Ouest des Deux Sèvres ) + les Mauges ( Sud Ouest du Maine et Loire )

Ne pas oublier. Ce foutu génocide est trop souvent mis sous le tapis...

They have headphones with translation in several foreign languages.

It is amazing trust me

Can't help for the money but they have headphones with traductions

They have headphones with traductions of the shows

Yess definitely go when you can, I got back two days ago and I go once every year for about 5 years, also if you do go, I recommend the walk-throughs, the vikings, Mousquetaires de Richelieu, LA mime et l'étoile and les noces du feu (it's a night show but if you're willing to stay that long, it's amazing AND free) actually I just recommend them all they're all amazing

found ur channel yesterday and have been binging !! i love these so much

The park basically promotes a far right agenda and the main issue is most people just aren't aware and educated enough to understand what they see. Also claiming catholicism is the " foundational religion of Europe " is one of the stupidest thing I've read so far.

Puy du fou created kynren but the show does not belong to them

Why not in Graceland ? Elvis viking, Elvis Knight. Elvis gladiator,, Elvis musketeer even whynot, Elvis singer.

there were false accusations of mistreatment but their teams are actually very professional

It've seen a few documentary about it they are very loved and well cared for. They have another park (rarely open to public) just for the animals, a bit like a zoo but with more space for them. They also have their own vet clinic and lots of professional to take care of them. and train them until they are fully ready to go. They show one bird that didn't want to perform they never forced it and just let him chill all day long!

he was just doing business, he's actually a very good man, who saved his region and fellow citizens from economic distraught. He's currently building a park for the Cherokee nation, so you see it is not about politics but about business. He did so much good but is often attacked because a lot of far-left people dislike him, but the french people do not think like our media might portray it. We are many to be grateful for his fight for the people of the countryside, for our histroy, and to shed light on a genocide which is still not recognized by the state for political reasons. He is no saint, but portraying him as any devil is simply awful and unjustified. So go see the park and try to understand why De Villiers is the way he is. Once you'll learn the histoy of his people, the vendean people, his motivations will be much clearer

Un conseil très cher : ne croyez pas tout ce que racontent les journaux français, qui désespèrent de voir un parc "fasciste" avoir tant de succès. De même, ne méprenez pas la réalité politique française à l'égard de la Russie, car le peuple français est plus proche du peuple russe que n'importe quel autre peuple en occident, ce qui peut être difficile à concevoir pour celui qui n'est pas français.

he is not pro putin nor fascist, he just loves France and the french people, especially the countryside people he came from. He does all he can to help them and to improve the economic situatiàn of his native region. The Putin part is just business, not politics. De Villiers is a good man overall for sure. We in France tend to be more moderate in geopolitics so we have less problems discussing with people like Putin, not that we support him either.

Vous vous êtes bien défini, vous haïssez ce qui est magnifique sous des prétextes complètement bidon "raciste, misogyne, homophobe" et d'autre, tout en expliquant que ça a des bienfaits incroyable. Schizophrène, en effet! avec si peu de conviction, abstenez vous de voter, par exemple!

One day you'll grow up and understand that it is precisely thanks to such agenda that a park like this one can exist. People who aren't traditionalists and "nationalists" won't do a park about french history precisely because history bothers their narrow minds, only tolerating the current state of mind. I am also French and I would remind you the republic has been an awful regime, filled to the brim with corruption, instability, colonialism and mass murder of its own population. It also disregards our history precisely because it is not favorable to the republican cause , unless heavily censoring the teaching of history like it did for a century, disregarding the vendean genocide (I don't care what you say, 300 000 deaths, mostly civilians is a genocide for me), and lying on countless historical facts and figures. De Villiers is a hero for telling the truth about the oppression catholics faced , for denouncing the horrors of the republic and bringing back pride in our nation-building monarchy. Your rant just smells like awful public school indoctrination. There is no french history without catholicism, traditon and the monarchy. You can't hate what made history and then pretend to like history anyways. Also, you should stop drugs for your brain cause if you see mysoginy, racism and homophobia in the park, I think you suffer from mental illness. Stop being a far left anti-france propagandist and an unsufferable twat. Love your history, love the things that made it, love the people promoting it, and stop idealizing a regime that is currently killing our peasantry . Open an acutal history book and grow up please. People in France are growing increasingly tired of this kind of bullshit you say. This Orwellian good think must stop. Whenever somebody tries to promote true french history, he or her is attacked for being seemingly "racist, homophobic, mysogynist, bigoted" and so on just because not regime-abiding enough. Stop repeating blindly what TV and public schools taught you to say. So for the love of God, just shut up. Thanks, a fellow frenchman !

Don't talk for us, we are plenty in France to love this guy ! He promoted local culture, gave plenty of jobs and boosted local economy. He fights cancel culture in France, especially when it targets our history, created one of the rising stars of the french industry, and gave a voice to many repressed populations and memories. The guy is the opposite of a tratior. And nobody cares about the russian park idea, he's trying to expland a successful french company worldwide, he's also building a park in the smoky mountains for the Cherokee nation. Only the radical left is opposing him because they dislike french history. So don't talk for the french people Karim, you only represent your own kind

@@camelotduroy1168 c’est un putain de traître à la nation. Il devrait être en prison pour intelligence avec l’ennemi. Qu’on lui retire son passeport.

This is about the history of that specific region rather than France itself. If you want to self victimize when it's not needed Twitter should be better of a medium
