The castle of Saint-Pierre is a Valdostan manor, located in the municipality of Saint-Pierre, for its very scenic appearance it has become one of the symbols of the Region, today it is home to the Regional Museum of Natural Sciences Efisio Noussan.

The the exhibition itinerary through the halls of the museum is designed to give life to ever-changing moments of knowledge. Some rooms are traditionally set up, where exhibits are displayed in the windows and where the insights are given via graphic communication, they alternate to rooms designed focusing on the use of the most modern multimedia equipment, such as interactive video stations and games of synchronized lights and sounds .

In general, apart from the historical showcases, the setting up consists of new elements that can be more complementary to the exhibition or more spectacular; in some rooms there are hyperrealistic dioramas, displaying the local flora and fauna, water and snow, stones and roots.

The hyperrealistic scenographies are associated with movies or sequences of lights and sounds, in order to simulate life and movement. The animals on display are taxidermied animals or resin reproductions.

The variability of the exhibition itinerary is reinforced by the use of multimedia technologies, with different purposes. The interactive monitors for in-depth analysis are accompanied by the latest generation monitors with high definition (4K). Some of these are in fact designed to integrate the vision of a movie to that of an object, others are chosen for their reduced size, equal to a thin glass plate.

In addition to the exhibition halls, Gruppofallani has designed the furnitures for the reception spaces and all the graphics.
