Science Expériences, Science museum in Bercy Village, Paris, France
Science Expériences is a private science museum located inside Bercy Village, in the 12th arrondissement of Paris. It offers hands-on stations covering topics such as physics, space, ocean life, and modern technology.
The museum opened in 2021 as part of a new wave of science venues focused on direct, hands-on learning. It was set up to bring science closer to a general audience through interactive tools rather than traditional displays.
Science communicators with expertise in various scientific fields guide visitors through the space, helping explain the concepts behind the demonstrations and displays. Their presence encourages conversation and helps people understand how the ideas presented connect to everyday life.
The museum sits steps from the Cour Saint-Émilion metro station, making it easy to reach from the city center. No scientific background is needed to follow the exhibits, so visitors of all ages can move through at their own pace.
One of the exhibits lets visitors experience a space station from an astronaut's point of view through a simulator. This kind of setup is rarely found in a museum of this size.
