About

Cabaret Mechanical Marvels Exhibition at Torre Abbey

This captivating showcase seamlessly weaves science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics into the enchanting universe of automata, celebrating mechanical artistry and innovation for visitors of all ages.

On show within the historic Torre Abbey, Cabaret Mechanical Marvels features hands-on mechanical exhibits and original artefacts from some of the finest contemporary automata makers.
