Fous de Garonne 4 universes to discover and learn all about the Garonne River

Fous de Garonne, the interpretation center of the river and its valley:

Did you know that almost every year, Couthures sur Garonne transforms into Couthures sous Garonne ? But do not panic ! Here in case of flood, you hang your furniture from the ceiling, you moor your boat to the balconies and you let the fish swim in your living room. Nothing unusual in the most endearing village in our territory, whose unmissable visit will undoubtedly make you, too, true “Fous de Garonne”.

When Garonne does his show – video mapping:
No, carp are not mute! And if you doubt it, it’s because you haven’t yet experienced the extraordinary discovery of video mapping at Fous de Garonne. This digital magic trick, between dream and reality, will immerse you in Couthurian life and its surprising history. To the rhythm of the river's floods, live a funny, surreal and infinitely poetic experience.

Virtual reality: Flood alert!
Put on your virtual reality headset and embark with the Couthures rescuers to experience, in total immersion, the great flood of December 2019. On board a rescue boat, you will be able to follow, as close as possible to the action, the interventions of these everyday heroes, always ready when Garonne is angry.

Cabane Nature: the natural ecosystem of Garonne
The navigator Yves Parlier is the godfather of this room, all covered in wood, where you can discover the river's fauna in 3D projection. A show which highlights insects, mammals and fish from the Garonne, hosts of an ecosystem of great richness and great fragility.

Aquarium & touch pool:
And there you have it, Garonne is acting up again and the kitchen is underwater. The fish move between unusual reefs made up of a table, a fridge and a television. An astonishing aquarium, visible from rue de La Cave, a stone's throw from the banks of the river.
