Musée des Confluences is an architectural marvel both inside and out. The building itself is a striking piece of modern design, perfectly situated where the Rhône and Saône rivers meet. Inside, the exhibitions are beautifully curated, covering everything from natural history and anthropology to science and technology. The displays are interactive, engaging, and accessible for all ages, making it a great experience whether you’re visiting alone, with friends, or as a family. Allow at least a few hours to explore—there’s so much to see and learn. Truly one of Lyon’s must-visit attractions!

the building is unique, i love the futuristic vibe. also, there are a lot of “visually intense” exhibitions inside, each one with a different idea. u get free entry if u are a student

Activité Nuage des petits au musée des confluence 1h c’est plutôt court pour que les enfants puissent prendre le temps entre tous les ateliers Ça reste une activité sympa à faire, surtout pendant les fortes chaleurs Il faut prendre un tickets musée en plus si vous souhaitez le visiter
