Manoir des Sciences de Réaumur
Experience an adventure to the heart of science at the home of Réaumur, the great scientist of the Age of Enlightenment, physicist and naturalist. Come and touch, manipulate and share your discoveries...
Be curious…The Manoir des Sciences offers an interactive and sensory tour of the house and gardens. Discover the Age of Enlightenment, Réaumur’s study, the history of the thermometer, 18th-century travel, the natural history collection and the laboratory – a play area for everyone. The gardens also hold a wealth of curiosities… For children, join Léo, Emma, Noé and Filou from the Club des Intrépides for an adventure in the gardens of the Manoir des Sciences.
Self-guided or guided tours (by booking), a café area and the option to have a picnic in the gardens.
An annual programme of events is organised, ranging from shows to lectures, including storytelling afternoons and special event days with specific admission rates.
Nearby, you’ll find the listed gardens of the Prieuré St Pierre, walking trails, the fortified and listed St Pierre Church, and the Sainte Marie Chapel, which was renovated in 2018.
