Here is a real exploration in the skin of a zoologist, a specialist of the sea bed, a botanist, a geologist... This excellent museum, with a very dynamic management, obtains all the suffrages with the children as with the adults. It is a real journey before time, one could almost say that the animals have a "second life" installed in the heart of their natural environment. Each floor has recreated a new climatic environment. The world of the savannah is in the background to highlight the elephants, giraffes, antelopes, gazelles and wildcats, so much so that one could almost believe they are still alive.

We pass successively from continent to continent, in tropical countries, from the equator to the arctic, desert or temperate worlds. One passes to the world of birds, to the underwater world, to the mineral world, from floor to floor, without forgetting the presentation of the famous Lucy and the two-headed turtle, the highlight of the museum. The museum regularly organizes very good temporary exhibitions on the scientific issues of the future, current topics, including the environment, as well as conferences on geosciences, fossils, dinosaurs, volcanoes, or guided tours with exciting themes. Regularly: "Ciné-samedi/ciné-dimanche", Saturdays and Sundays at 3pm. Animations on Wednesdays from 2 to 4:30 pm. An excellent museum, therefore, of which the children do not get tired. We always go back there!

Très bien
Très belle visite. Superbe moments passés en famille, grands parents, enfants et petits enfants. Il y a aussi quelques espèces vivantes dont une tortue a deux têtes.

Excellente muséographie qui change des musées d'histoire naturelle poussiéreux. Un must, à ne pas rater si vous êtes de passage.

Un modèle de musée pour intéresser les enfants à la science.
Je l'avais fait avec eux tout petits et ils avaient été fascinés par les animaux.
On y est retournés avec des adolescents, et il a fallu nous pousser dehors à l'heure de la fermeture après 4h de visite car nous étions absorbés par la partie astronomie ...
Un gros intérêt par rapport aux expositions parisiennes est que je n'ai pas vu de dégradations, et que les éléments interactifs fonctionnent toujours.
Il y en a vraiment pour tous les âges et c'est expliqué très clairement et visuellement, personne ne se sent lésé.
Free museum. Beautiful presentation of stuffed animals from all countries. To see the lively turtle with two heads at the entrance and the skeleton of magnificent elephant.
Bring a gross after noon to tour. Full of activities for children, check the programme on their site.
