Museum of mineralogy with thousands of samples, with a permanent collection in addition to temporary exhibitions
Known today as Mines Paris Tech, the Mining school was founded in 1783 and is setup in the Vendome hotel (eighteenth century) since 1816. It trains engineers and offers research activities. Its museum has a rich collection of thousands of samples: emerald, ruby, amethyst, gold, rock crystal, quartz crystals etc. In its brut or polished form, also in the form of small strips cut from the thickness of stones. These wonders are dazzling. Temporal exhibitions are also available in addition to permanent exhibitions.
