Fall back into childhood on September 20 and 21, 2025, with the Musée du Jouet's family program for the 42nd Heritage Days.

It's a veritable Ali Baba's cave for all those who still have a child's soul. A small thematic museum that appeals to young and old alike, the Musée du Jouet reveals a little more during the 42nd edition of the Journées du Patrimoine. All weekend long, discovery and thematic tours are offered to the curious. Join us on September 20 and 21, 2025 to discover this museum dedicated to our childhood companions!

Located in Poissy, in the porterie of the former priory of Poissy, this museum houses a vast collection of nearly 14,000 objects, including 600 games and toys, offering a fascinating journey through the world of toys, from Antiquity to the present day. Dolls, cuddly toys, miniature vehicles and racetracks, board games and construction sets, scientific games, skipping ropes and figurines... Fashions come and go, technologies evolve, but children's passions remain intact.

If you'd like to discover the games of yesterday and today, and enjoy some great entertainment for the whole family, we'd like to invite you to take advantage of this free weekend at the Musée du Jouet! Here's the detailed program of events that await you during these two festive days, but please note that booking is compulsory!
