Exploradôme
Description
The Exploradôme, an interactive museum where touching the exhibits is not only allowed but positively encouraged, awaits your visit justa few kilometres from Paris. A place of scientific discovery, digital experiences and education on sustainable development for all audiences, the museum welcomes children as young as 4, teenagers, and adults too!
A commitment to sustainable development
The scientific adventure takes place in an energy-efficient building with innovative architecture 500 metres from the Mac/Val, the Museum of Contemporary Art of the Val-de-Marne department.
Discover a permanent exhibition consisting of around sixty surprising scientific experiments designed by the Exploratorium in San Francisco. Chosen for their appealing and spectacular nature, these experiments will surprise and amuse visitors as they experiment, discover and understand. At Exploradôme, you are expected to take part! With the museum’s activity leaders, you can handle and launch objects, trigger clouds and tornadoes, jump into the air, make faces or strike a pose to create your shadow on the wall…
Extend the fun by joining one of the many workshops offered by the museum and visiting the temporary exhibition space: ample opportunities to deepen your knowledge of a given topic in a fun and playful way. Exploradôme: a museum full of discoveries for all the family!
Discover Exploradôme through one of the treasure hunts in the Paris Region Adventures application specially designed for families and downloadable free of charge.
