Le Monde de Noé: an immersive experience in the animal world, in Paris

Le Monde de Noé invites young and old alike to a unique immersive experience in the 16th and 14th arrondissements of Paris. Discover three fascinating ecosystems populated by rescued animals, all supervised by passionate professionals. Experience authentic, educational interaction with the animal world. An opportunity to raise families' awareness of biodiversity and animal welfare in an urban environment.

Calling all animal and nature lovers! After opening its first location in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, Le Monde de Noé will open its second in the Montparnasse district on February 1, 2025. The concept is to offer young and old alike an educational and sensory adventure. Visitors will have the rare opportunity to rub shoulders with rescued pets in a secure environment, while being guided by "Rangers".

The concept of Noah's World goes beyond a simple visit: it's a respectful and educational interaction with real animals. Each visitor, limited to a group of 15 to ensure a quality experience, is immersed in a reconstituted nature where scratching and learning are intertwined. Three ecosystems have been meticulously created to immerse urban explorers in a sensory journey: from the Ranch, where the gentleness of rodents awaits your caresses, to the Jungle teeming with avian and aquatic life, to the Lab unveiling the mysteries of biodiversity.

The visit is divided into three key stages for total immersion. First, a welcome by the Rangers, experienced animal caretakers who prepare visitors for the adventure that awaits them, centered on the story of an adventurous chameleon, Noah. This is followed by immersion in theOasis, where each space reveals a unique aspect of animal life and its interaction with the seasons. And finally, the conclusion of the adventure, with a debriefing to highlight the highlights of the experience and a reminder of everyone's responsibilities as guardians of the animal world.

At the heart of this project is animal welfare, an absolute priority. Each animal resident at Le Monde de Noé, whether abandoned or from laboratories, is offered a second chance in an adapted and stimulating habitat. Thierry Bedossa, a leading figure in animal welfare, sponsors this urban sanctuary, reinforcing his commitment to a better life for these animals. The concept also raises awareness of the problem of pets in the city, offering an alternative to impulse buying.

For the second address, in the Montparnasse district, the concept offers a new immersive story, with new animals rescued. This time, Le Monde de Noé even offers toddlers the chance to discover animals, with a new early-learning program for children aged 1 and over. In small groups (of 4 children), they can discover and learn to care for giant rabbits, ferrets, parakeets, carp...

Le Monde de Noé is the visionary brainchild of brothers Edgar and Hector Bonvallot. Inspired by the rich fauna of the Galapagos Islands, they have created a space in Paris to reconnect city dwellers and animals. Their ambitious goal is to open similar centers in other French cities and internationalize their concept, starting with a series of traveling animal mediation activities.
