Through a journey punctuated with visual and sound effects, Louis Mandrin, a famous smuggler from the 18th century invites you to discover his universe: taverns, woods and hideouts in which he used to go. You may even be able to do some business with him!
Le Repaire Louis Mandrin- Mandrin's hideout - is located in Saint-Genix-sur-Guiers, in the heart of the Pays du Lac d'Aiguebelette - Savoie foreland, last place where Mandrin lived as a free man. He was considered as a great smuggler however people have different points of view about him. Either he is considered as a nice smuggler similar to Robin Hood or he is a smuggler murderer who should not be remembered as a Robin Hood.
Come and have your say. Indeed, you can travel in time with all your family and get to know a part of French History, follow Mandrin in his last adventure and maybe become a smuggler as well.
