Museum in the former Suresnes-Longchamp station, to discover the evolution of social urbanism during the interwar period.

The Museum of Urban and Social History (formerly the René-Sordes Museum) opened its doors at the beginning of 2013 in the former Suresnes-Longchamp station building. Visitors can discover the evolution of social urban planning in the commune during the inter-war period thanks to a wealth of documents and objects relating to the industrial heritage and architectural projects of the time. The Granoux collection, which has been in existence since 1926, includes postcards, posters, photos and other objects from European history from the end of the Second Empire to the Third Republic. The museum also offers fun urban tours to (re) discover certain key places, such as the floodgates, the Garden Cities, or the American cemetery. 70,000 objects and documents from the city are available. Urban walks in Suresnes and family workshop.

Un beau musée pour découvrir l'histoire de la ville de Suresnes !
Visited in december 2023
Petit musée présentant au rdc l'histoire locale de la viticulture à l'industrie , le premier étage est plus consacré à l'urbanisme et à Henri Sellier qui fût maire de la ville entre 1919 et 1941 et ministre de la santé publique dans le gouvernement de front populaire , il a été un des promoteurs des cités jardins. Les expositions sont en général en rapport avec l'urbanisme et assez instructive. Le musée est situé dans l'ancienne gare de Suresnes Longchamp et le tramway T2 s'arrête au niveau de l'étage mais il faut quand même descendre un escalier.
L'accueil fait aussi office de boutique et un ascenseur fait le lien entre le rdc et le 1er étage.
Actuellement expo Trésors de décors jusqu'au mois de Juin 2024.
Le musée est gratuit le premier dimanche du mois.
