Come and discover all the secrets of these giants, from their scientific aspect to their historical and mythological dimension, through a fun and interactive exhibition: films, models, photo galleries, objects to touch, etc.

Also available to young visitors (6 to 12 years old): booklet of 12 challenges to discover the secrets of the ice giants.
