900 restored objects and works of art are presented in an immersive, multi-faceted tour, so that everyone can find their place.

A maritime Mecca for the 21st century, it aims to convey a taste for the sea and an awareness of its challenges to as many people as possible, especially the younger generations. A museum of history, arts, science and technology, its collections retrace more than 250 years of French maritime and naval adventures.

Embark on a voyage of three major "crossings", on the major maritime themes of yesterday, today and tomorrow, and four "ports of call", on the treasures of the collection!
