14 Off-the-Beaten-Path Things to See in Paris (Updated 2025)

"Housed in Marie Curie's old laboratory in the 5th arrondissement, the museum highlights her radiological research and was insightful and eye-opening for me; it underscores that Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize (and the only woman to win it twice), invented the word 'radioactivity', was the first female professor at the University of Paris, and the first woman entombed in the Panthéon on her own merits." - Matthew Kepnes

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.

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.

Great to remember a "la patronne", all the breakthroughs, and t both the historic and scientific context. The personal is really kind and helpfull. Is small but 100% recommend for those who love science.

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.

The Curie Museum was fantastic! As a professor and someone who is fascinated with science and history, this was a wonderful experience. The museum was designed well, information was explained, and seeing Marie Curie's office and lab was amazing. She was a pioneer for science and women! Definitely make time to go when you are in Paris!

Although small, this museum is quite popular. I visited on Saturday and there were many people. An interesting exhibition (descriptions available in both French and English). You can see Maria Skłodowska Curie's office and laboratory. The museum shop has very friendly staff and many interesting books about the life of the Nobel Prize winner. At the back of the museum, there is a small but charming garden.

A cute small museum that is an important part of history, admission is free and information is displayed in both French and English. It's worth noting that her labs were decontaminated in the early 1980's and is perfectly safe to see/visit. I brought a gamma scintillator for fun and readings were not above background levels. Note, to enter you need to go past the museum, through some gates then back to the museum entrance that is visible from the street but not accessible because of the fence.
