Immerse yourself in the origins of Ardèche and rule the mysteries of Life ! A spectacular adventure in the universe of fossils turning the clock back.

This museum has opened recently, and is a great activity for kids aged 6+. The guided tour we had through the museum was led by an enthusiastic and sympathetic guide. The explanations were interesting, and some simple illustrations are understandable by kids. The exhibition is spectacular as you can see fossils from different ages and origins. For kids you can add two more activities: a molding of a claw or a tooth of a dinosaur, and excavation of fossils and stones. In addition kids will enjoy replicas of dinosaur's skeletons, like T-rex Stan. The museum is air-conditioned, which can be an additional argument for hot days, and it has a small outside bar. Prices are very reasonable, a parking is just close to the museum. A truly recommendable hidden gem!

Hiding under the Duke of Savoy's castle, you might miss the chance to discover this surprising and peculiar little museum. I had the chance to visit it when I first came in Savoy for my studies and I’m glad I did. At first sight, the place has a gloomy, almost haunted vibe which remind me of Agatha Christie’s books. Once I entered, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of different species the museum can expose. I was stunned by their collections, especially the butterflies one. Somehow, I still can’t forget their vibrant colours. I must admit that it was a very pleasant surprise. I met there very instructive and passionate people who took time to present me their masterpieces, their work at the museum and to share with me some little anecdotes about the museum history. I’m looking forward my next visit!
