Over 50,000 shells to admire!
Whether you're curious, a collector or an enthusiast, the museum has something for everyone.
Pass through sumptuous rooms to discover shells from all over the world.
Discover these jewels of the sea, in a wide variety of shapes and colours.
People have always been fascinated by the strange beauty of shells, the infinite variety of shapes and textures and the subtlety of colours.
Some shells are veritable works of art!
The ocean and all its mysteries will be revealed to you through a collection that is unique in Europe.
Discover the most unusual inhabitants of the oceans: tropical shells, corals, crustaceans, clams and sharks.
