Maison d'Ailleurs, Yverdon-les-Bains

Maison d'Ailleurs is a unique museum dedicated to science fiction, utopia and extraordinary journeys. The permanent "Souvenirs du Futur" space presents collections relating to twentieth-century science fiction (books, periodicals, film posters, paintings, engravings, drawings, film stills, games, sound documents and videotapes, etc.), while temporary exhibitions focus on contemporary productions in the field. Maison d'Ailleurs also houses the Espace Jules Verne in the former casino, linked to the museum by a footbridge. At the heart of this historic hall is a library housing the Jean-Michel Margot collection of some 20,000 documents (articles, theses, biographies, literary studies) devoted to Jules Verne. Its documentation center, with over 120,000 items, is open to researchers, documentalists and students.
