About

Le Vaisseau

For more than 15 years, the Vaisseau has been offering children aged 3 to 12 (and the adults who accompany them) animations, exhibitions, workshops and courses to understand science while having fun. The concept of this establishment of the European Collectivity of Alsace is based on a simple idea: children are more interested in science if it is presented in a playful way. Thus, many techniques of scientific mediation are used so that all the visitors can find the one which corresponds to them:

Human mediation: a team of animators is permanently present in the exhibitions. They offer "flash" activities.
They are distributed in the Garden (to explore and discover the plants and small animals that surround us such as bees), Being human (children discover the human body), I make (building is to approach techniques very useful in everyday life), The Forest (here the children work on their logic and solve mathematical riddles), the Animals (with the ant farm to observe the life of these insects), the Oasis (to understand the physical properties of liquids), the Nursery (a space where the children cultivate creativity) and the Cave to explore the properties of light

Films and shows: through beautiful stories, they allow visitors to understand the world around them from another angle.
The event exhibition: presented over several months, it offers an original exploration, always related to science and technology.
