Journeys
In Pataphonie, the visitor becomes a traveler... and embarks on an expedition into an unknown universe of sounds...
Located in one of the oldest buildings in Dinant (formerly "Maison du Pléban", 15th and 16th centuries), the Maison de la Pataphonie is a unique sound escape space in the world, which was opened in 2001.
Pushing the door of this House means going on a journey into the world of sounds, discovering materials and objects with unsuspected resonances, creating sound atmospheres and playing music together.
During this trip, we will cross the different provinces of this country.
- Saxofolie: Province dedicated to Adolphe Sax
- Metalodie: Enigmatic Province with metallic resonance
- Aqualubie: A Province where sounds get wet
- Lithosphere: The Province of ringing stones
- Philaphonie: The starting point for most trips
Imagined by Max Vandervorst and materialized by Amalgames, the unique instrumentarium has developed considerably over time and is constantly evolving thanks to the inventiveness of the Pataphon who lives there.
Important note: we very much regret that the particular character of this ancient building does not allow access to those of reduced mobility.
