What to expect

Micropolis, la cité des insectes, is a museum dedicated to the entomologist Jean-Henri Fabre and inspired by the film Microcosmos. The museum has 15 rooms spread over 2,400 square meters and vast outdoor spaces, including a walk called the carnival of insects, which is both a space for observing nature and a fun area for evocation of insects through 11 figurative stations presenting giant insects. The museum also has a scientific centre with an experimental station on biodiversity and a restaurant with a new menu and ambiance. Visitors can enjoy a panoramic view of Mont Seigne and participate in interactive activities, making it a great place to visit with family and friends
