City of Science & Industry

This weird ball structure actually houses Europe's largest science museum. Cité des Sciences tries to promote science and uses interactive ways of spreading knowledge. Explore some of the permanent exhibitions such as Light Games or The Great Story of the Universe.

Part of the museum is Cité Des Enfants, a playground where your children can experience sessions full of games and experiments. It's suitable for children aged 2 - 12. The permanent exhibitions vary, from light games, transport and mankind, energy, to sounds and mathematics. Everyone - child or an adult - will find something that will interest them.

The museum is accessible from metro station Porte de la Villette (line 7), or buses 75, 139, 150, 152 and 249.
