The House of the Giants is a multimedia museum which introduces the visitor to the giant puppets of the annual Ath ducasse feast, plus similar fantastic creatures from other European festivals. Characters, their creators, and the players who animate the puppets during the actual parade are all covered. The builiding which houses the museum is an 18th century private mansion. The character of Goliath plays a special role at the House of the Giants, just as he does during the ducasse.
