Le Roc des Curiosités, Aquarium and curiosity museum at Pointe du Roc, Granville, France

The Roc des Curiosités combines an aquarium with marine species and exhibitions of butterflies, arachnids, and minerals in a natural science collection format.

The institution began its journey in the 1960s as an aquarium before expanding into a comprehensive natural science museum over several decades.

The museum features Captain Nemo as a guide through the marine sections, connecting visitors with maritime traditions and scientific discovery.

Located at 1 Boulevard de Vaufleury, the facility includes covered picnic areas, a restaurant, and parking spaces for up to nine buses.

The Mineral Palace and Shell Gallery collections required thirty years of development to assemble their extensive specimen displays.
