Musée de la batellerie, Maritime transport museum in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, France

The museum displays an extensive collection of river boat models, naval equipment, and technical installations showcasing French inland waterway navigation history.

Founded in 1965 by Louise Weiss and housed in Château du Prieuré, the museum received the prestigious 'Musée de France' designation in 2003.

The museum maintains five exhibition spaces presenting river navigation development from the 17th century through mechanical navigation to modern canal operations.

The documentation center welcomes researchers while educational programs engage school groups in discovering the heritage of French river transportation.
