Musée très complet et intéressant, orienté sur les inventions et les sciences. Idéal pour les curieux en histoire des inventions. Nous sommes partis en famille, les enfants de moins de 8 ans peuvent trouver ça un peu long. Prévoir autour de deux heures de visite.

For someone with practical or technical capabilities, this museum is "made in gold".

Musée très grand et très intéressant ! Personnel serviable
