The Museum

A Museum like no other...

All year long, the Museum provides recreational and interactive temporary exhibitions to help you discover and comprehend the treasures of nature, embracing fauna, flaura and minerals.

The purpose is to inspire curiosity by combining science with entertainment in order to explore the multiple fields of the scientific world in a different way. This focus helps us better understand the challenges of the world we live in and establish the Museum as a special place for knowledge exchange between generations.

With a rich diversity of exhibitions, thematic tours, workshops, staged readings, performances, lectures and special events, the Museum asserts its position as a place for discovery and sharing for the whole family.

The Museum has decided to dedicate the entire building to temporary exhibitions : With each exhibition, the whole Museum undergoes a total makeover based on a new theme to discover...

The temporary exhibitions provide an immersive, recreational, interactive and easily accessible experience into the treasures of nature, embracing flaura, fauna and minerals.

They include specific programmes aimed at young audiences, as well as specially designed educational devices, such as discovery booklets.

For the comfort of our visitors, thematic reading rooms - including a selection of books and albums for all ages – are open during each exhibition. These large comfortable rooms will provide the visitors with an ideal environment to take a break, acquire information, read a story, give their baby a bottle...

In addition to the exhibitions, the Museum also provides several workshops. The aim of these workshops is to further explore the theme of the exhibition around a recreational and educational activity supervised by a guide. Workshops are designed as moments of sharing between children and parents.

During these workshops, sensory approach (sight, touch, taste...) is favoured in order to provide access to people with disabilities.

Workshops and specific events are organized on Wednesdays and Sunday afternoons, except on the first Wednesday of every month (staged reading).

Recommended for children of 3 years and older, and their families !
