    Though it's quite small, it's very well put together and informative. The Lego is an ingenious touch to get more ages intrested in science....The man at the front desk was lovely and sweet too. Thank you for a magical birthday.

    Really enjoyed this museum! It’s small as other comments say, but when we visited there was a Lego exhibition on at the same time which was so well done! If you like dead things and facts then this is the place for you! It’s only €3.50 to enter or free as part of the 4 day museum pass in Nice, so worth a visit :) as an entomologist I really enjoyed my trip here.
