Aquarium Georges BRESSE, Public aquarium in Citadelle de Besançon, France
The aquarium contains multiple glass tanks displaying a variety of freshwater fish species and tropical marine life within the stone walls of Citadelle de Besançon.
The facility underwent a complete renovation in 1995, transforming the ground floor and courtyard of the Petit Arsenal into an educational marine center.
The institution provides learning programs about marine biodiversity, environmental protection, and the effects of climate change on aquatic ecosystems.
Located at Rue Fusillés de la Résistance in Besançon, the aquarium welcomes visitors every day from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM throughout the year.
The renovation incorporated wood and metal elements that connect modern exhibition spaces with the historical architecture of the Citadelle complex.
