Micropolis

Micropolis, la cité des insectes is situated in the Lévézou region of France, at Saint-Léons, near Millau. Micropolis is a museum dedicated to the entomologist Jean-Henri Fabre and inspired by the film, Microcosmos, of 1996.

Micropolis is also a scientific centre with an experimental station on biodiversity. The covered building has 15 rooms spread over 2,400 square metres. It has vast outdoor spaces, in particular a walk called the carnival of insects which is both a space for observing nature with a panorama of Mont Seigne and a fun area for evocation of insects through 11 figurative stations which present giant insects.
