Musée aéronautique et spatial Safran, Aerospace museum in Réau, France

The museum displays an extensive collection of aircraft engines, models, and technical documents illustrating the progression of aviation and space technology through time.

The museum emerged from a 1979 initiative by Snecma President René Ravaud to preserve the company's historical legacy as France's oldest active aircraft engine manufacturer.

The facility maintains a collection of restored Gnome and Rhône motorcycles alongside aviation exhibits, representing French industrial innovation across different sectors.

Admission is free, with opening hours on Wednesdays from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, plus similar hours on the second and last Saturday monthly.

A 700-square-meter extension added in 2013 features a dedicated gallery for space propulsion systems with educational paths designed for children to learn scientific concepts.
