Formerly the Hôtel de Sous-préfecture, this 16th-century building belonged to the Teilhard Laterrisse family. Today, the 4-level Maison de la Faune showcases animal collections of rare quality, presented in reconstructed biotopes.
La sous-préfecture de Murat ayant été supprimée en 1926, le bâtiment devint la Maison de la Faune : ce magnifique hôtel particulier du XVIème siècle abrite plus de 8000 espèces d’insectes, papillons et coléoptères, du monde entier, qui vous éblouiront par leurs beautés. Un splendide patrimoine naturalisé également à découvrir avec près de 800 mammifères et oiseaux présentés dans des biotopes reconstitués.
Les animaux vous sont présentés dans leurs environnements, le tout dans une ambiance sonorisée.
