Curie Museum

As a physicist and teacher I can safely say that this is the most impressive educational place that i’ve ever been to. Highly recommend it for parents – it’s perfectly equipped with interactive videos and posters. All demonstrations are available in English and everything is completely FREE.

Fantastic museum about an extraordinary scientist which changed the world. The museum is small, bur shows you everything you need to see, her office, lab, equipment, history even the impact the radiation caused in the humanity.

An underrated gem we stumbled across by accident but was actually one of our trip highlights. Free entry and only small, so just allow an hour if you’re planning on reading everything describing the pieces. We learned a lot and found it all so fascinating. A must visit for any lover of science & technology.

WOW! Free admission and such an amazing museum dedicated to all that Marie Curie contributed to our science fields. The artifacts, notes, her laboratory and office, etc are phenomenal and it is a privilege to get to see these things. As a chemistry educator, this was a dream come true and has been on my bucket list. So thankful for this museum and that it is free and open for the public to enjoy and learn from.

We thought the Curie Museum was just great. The museum is small but loaded with information and instruments owned by Marie Curie. We very much enjoyed seeing her original office and laboratory, left much as it was in her day. Her garden is also preserved in the rear of the building. A very worthwhile place to visit.

Since its free i really cant complain. But its small and not much to see, just some equipment used by the lab, some intro. If you’re close by, its ok to swing by, but not really worth a trip by itself.

A small but informative museum. Once it was the site of the Radium Institute, opened in 1914. It consisted of two pavilions: the Pasteur pavilion and the Curie pavilion. If you decide to stop by, it’s only to immerse yourself once again in the history of science and its most important discoveries. At the center of the museum are Marie Curie’s office and personal laboratory, untouched evidence of her work.

Small museum with free entry, but I wouldn’t recommend it unless if you have some time to kill. Visitors get insights into the lives of the Curie family, but the museum does a very poor job at explaining the basics of nuclear science and why it mattered. Rather than a video of Marie Curie ice skating, I would have appreciated a decent introduction to the historical context and significance of Marie Curie’s research, the technical and societal challenges she faced, etc. Signs are in French and English.

One of the underrated attractions in Paris. It's a small museum that's off the beaten path, but definitely worth the train ride if you're interested in science. You actually get to see Madam Curie's lab and office (with the assurance that they are no longer radioactive). There is also a history of the Curie family in both French and English.

Definitely worth the trip! Within minutes of Pantheon by foot. Informative, interactive, and free. What an incredible, intelligent family that changed medicine!!!

Excellent original laboratory site for Marie Curie and her genius family of pioneering scientists. Don't worry, the lab has long been decontaminated of any radiation. Much of the original equipment, notes, supplies, letters, and tools have been preserved on display at this informative, free museum near the Pantheon. Madame Curie's office and lab are intact, and there is a wealth of interesting info focused on the Curies' work and discoveries while in this lab that would become the go-to resource for such work around the world. The lab is now part of an entire science campus, and is a fantastic tribute to the Curie brains that did their most important thinking right on this site.

This is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of science! Marie and Pierre Curie were pioneers in the understanding of radioactivity and X-Rays. Marie Curie is the only person ever to win the Nobel Prize in two sciences.
