LA NUIT DES MUSÉES

Created in 2005 at the instigation of the French Ministry of Culture and Communication, this event is an opportunity to discover the museums of Mance and Sarthe in a whole new way. This exceptional opening is scheduled for spring, from 7pm to midnight. Lecturers at the city's various museums will be offering guided tours and fun activities, covering both temporary exhibitions and the permanent collections. It's sure to be a surreal experience, as nighttime is always a time for dreams and mystery. The museum institution takes on a magical new dimension. An annual experience not to be missed.
