Cité de l’espace was founded in 1997 and is classed as both an astronautical museum and a theme park. It has held the Tourisme & Handicap label since 2003 for hearing, mental, motor and visual impairments, and a companion gets in free if the visitor’s disability card states that one is needed. Keep an eye on the clock at the end of the day: the ticket desks close an hour before the site does. The two-day ticket buys more time, but the two days have to be consecutive.
