About lesmachines-nantes.fr
Les Machines de l'Île is a visitor attraction on the Île de Nantes in Nantes, France, built around large mechanical sculptures. The site presents a gallery of machine animals, a large mechanical elephant that is taken out for walks, and the Carrousel des mondes marins, a carousel on the Loire bank opposite the Musée Jules Verne.
Visitors pay admission to see the sculptures, with opening hours and ticketing published online. The organisation also runs social media accounts on Facebook and Instagram.
The attraction is listed as one of several Nantes cultural sites, alongside Le Voyage à Nantes, Estuaire, Les Tables de Nantes, the Château des ducs de Bretagne and the Mémorial de l'abolition de l'esclavage. Recent site news covers the L'Été Indien 2026 programme and maintenance of the Grand Éléphant. The attraction is reached by tram line 1, at the Chantiers navals stop.
Product: Admission to the Les Machines de l'Île mechanical sculpture gallery, the Grand Éléphant and the Carrousel des mondes marins.
