History of the Project

The idea for a major museum dedicated to Charlie Chaplin and his work originated in 2000 from a meeting between Swiss architect Philippe Meylan and Quebec museographer Yves Durand, a cinema and Chaplin enthusiast. A collective of entrepreneurs and artists, local stakeholders, as well as teams of architects, engineers, and designers, worked on the project's design.
