This day will be an opportunity to discover these soldiers on the march during a military campaign, and to attend manoeuvres where piquiers in weapons and armor will go to the front, accompanied by musketeers who will blush the black powder of their muskets. For the gentlemen who had already served in the Guards, access to this elite and parade corps, close to the king, was an important promotion.
This immersive experience will continue with the Vauban Lille Fencing Academy which will transport you to the 17th century thanks to its show «Black Boot».
The Heavenly Captain Savinien of Saint-Cyr claims the place of Governor of the city. To do this, he wants to show his value by arresting the greatest bandit ever: Black Boot! But the sudden disappearance of his sister, as well as the arrival of a mysterious individual, put obstacles in his way. Public show at 11:30, 15:00 and 17:00.
By participating in the many workshops offered (mapping, creation of a sundial, ceramics...) children, accompanied by their parents, will discover a period that has never been mentioned on the park.
