La Cité de la Mer: at the heart of the oceans
Housed in Cherbourg’s former transatlantic railway station, the Cité de la Mer is a must-see for anyone curious about marine life. Visitors can explore the world’s largest submarine open to the public, Le Redoutable, relive the history of the Titanic in an immersive exhibition, and marvel at aquariums filled with species from the deep sea.
The Ludiver Planetarium: head in the stars
Perched on the heights of Tonneville, in the Cotentin region, Ludiver offers a journey through space. The planetarium projects the starry sky onto an immersive dome, while interactive exhibitions help visitors understand astronomical phenomena. It’s a wonderful way to discover the cosmos, combining science and poetry.
The Paléospace in Villers-sur-Mer: between dinosaurs and constellations*
Just a stone’s throw from the sea, this modern and entertaining museum tells the story of the Jurassic period in Normandy, when crocodiles, ammonites and ichthyosaurs roamed the region. It also features a planetarium, an exhibition on the marshes and the opportunity to take part in archaeological digs.
La Maison de l’Estuaire: nature on a grand scale
On the south bank of the Seine estuary, near Le Havre, this visitor centre offers the chance to discover a remarkable nature reserve. Through exhibitions, observation trails and guided walks, you can learn to recognise migratory birds, understand the wetland ecosystem and observe the landscapes shaped by the river.
Naturospace: tropical immersion
In a greenhouse heated all year round, Naturospace offers visitors the chance to immerse themselves in a tropical world. Here, you can walk among multicoloured butterflies, exotic birds and lush plants. Fun and exotic, the place is particularly appealing to families with children who are curious to explore a vibrant ecosystem in the heart of Honfleur.
