City of Science and Industry

The City of Science and Industry is the biggest science museum in Europe. The most notable features of the “bioclimatic facade” facing the park are Les Serres – three greenhouse spaces each 32 metres high, 32 metres wide and 8 metres deep. The facades of Les Serres were the first structural glass walls to be constructed without framing or supporting fins. The City is classified as a public establishment of an industrial and commercial character, an establishment specialising in the fostering of scientific and technical culture.
