    Interactive, accessible, interesting and informative, in a lovely mansion within a lovely setting. Compared to the Europe Experience centers, it has a vintage touch and a lot more charm. We spent over 2 hours going through every single attraction with our group. Definitely recommended!

    En voyage avec un groupe d'enfants de 9 à 11 ans. Ils ont trouvé l'exposition intéressante et ont bien participé au remplissage de leur livret. Les adultes ont également pris plaisir à rechercher les infos pour remplir leurs fiches et s'instruire. Visite interactive et très instructive. Merci à l'équipe pour leur accueil. Durée 1h facile.
