Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories

- museum
Show & CultureShow & CultureBefore cinema and modern screens, there was a whole world of animated images and optical shows. The magic lantern, which finds its origin in shadow plays, made it possible to project images reproduced on glass plates onto walls. Popularized in the 19th century, its many scientific, educational, or playful uses made it both a practical and entertaining object. The museum "A Possen" invites you to rediscover these forgotten treasures through its temporary exhibition "Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories." As witnesses to a time when technology and art came together to inspire wonder, these objects tell the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
