This major annual event is a favorite among art and heritage enthusiasts. Even the more scientifically-minded will find something to their liking: yes, in Paris, there's a museum for every passion! So mark the date in your diary: this Saturday, May 17, 2025, the Nuit des Musées is back!
Once again this year, the Musée des Arts et Métiers welcomes curious young and old alike to the rooms of the museum dedicated to the inventions of all time. Cars, airplanes, monumental buildings, computers and music boxes, cathedral models... The museum's collections offer a glimpse of mankind's most extraordinary inventions.
As you make your way through the collections, let yourself be hypnotized by the oscillations of Foucault's pendulum as you watch the Earth spin, by flying machines in pursuit of Icarus' dream, be electrified by the sparks of human genius, captivated by demonstrations from the past. Organized into seven thematic sections, the tour features some of the finest pieces in the museum's collection.
Take part in this extraordinary nocturnal journey through the Musée des Arts et Métiers. An adventure worthy of Jules Verne's novels for all curious and scientific minds. Shall we go?
