There’s a reason why Le Puy du Fou® has been voted the best amusement park in the world – it deserves it. Every year, hundreds of thousands of visitors and tourists come here in both summer and winter to enjoy a wealth of beautiful shows. More specifically, nearly 1.5 million visitors and it’s not over yet! The park has been receiving visitors for over 30 years and is still going strong.

New in 2016, the Dernier Panache (The Last Fight) is a great saga based on a colourful character, Charette de la Contrie, whose secrets only Le Puy du Fou knows! Discover his exploits, his fights, his feats of arms..
