An extraordinary place for children
A space for 2-7 year olds and for 5-12 year olds
At the City of Science and Industry
the children's housing estate La Villette

If you want to test everything, plan to go back several times as the experiences are varied and interesting: listening to the noise produced by two snails eating, calculating the speed of sound from your own voice, thwarting optical illusions, etc. The duration of a session at the Cité des Enfants is 1h30.

  • Sessions every 1h30 during and outside school holidays – Online booking strongly recommended (especially during school holidays)
  • The session lasts 1h30 (1h15 during the All Saints’ Day and Christmas holidays)
  • The ticket to the children’s city gives access to the Argonaute submarine (subject to availability). The Louis Lumière cinema is currently closed.
