Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace was originally situated in Meudon after World War I and was moved to the Bourget in 1975. This was where Charles Lindburgh had landed after his 33 hour flight from Long Island. With a unique collection of more than 180 machines, the museum covers the aerospace era from the 1879 heavier-than-air glider Massiat-Biot to the Ariane rocket. You will also be amazed to see the interesting exhibition with the balloon theme - Le Temps des Ballons, the chief fighting aircrafts of the French Air Army since 1950 and the beautiful aircrafts of World War II. Entrance fee is EUR 7; free for those below 18 years of age.
