Discover the exceptional architecture of the Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans, built by Nicolas Ledoux under the order of Louis XV and designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1982.

Thanks to the HistoPad, an augmented reality visit will plunge you into the heart of the 18th-century saltworks. You'll be awestruck by the size and majesty of one of the largest saltworks in Europe which was once devoted to the exploitation of salt in Franche-Comté.

Continue your visit with the permanent salt exhibition, the beautiful museum of the architect Claude-Nicolas Ledoux where his models and other projects are exhibited, or with the immersive Center of Lights, dedicated to this UNESCO World Heritage.

At the heart of a 13-hectare park, a visit to the saltworks would not be complete without its 30 gardens ! In the first semi-circle, they have been thougt around the plant under different aspects. From June, find in the Huge Circle the Garden Festival and its thematic plots.

All year round, experience intensely many events at the Royal Saltworks.
