Summer holidays at the Pavillon de Manse

Hot summer ahead? Splash! Cool off at the Pavillon de Manse. Our outreach team has put together a summer programme for all the family, with a focus on water: fun experiments, hands-on activities and discoveries for young and old alike. It's an experience to be shared, combining science, heritage... and freshness! Get ready to experiment!

All tours of the Pavilion (self-guided or guided) must be booked in advance via the website.
