About
The Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle turns 400 and is marking it with a dedicated program of events at its home in the Jardin des Plantes. The garden's long central perspective is planted with flowers in the anniversary's colors, and an exhibition traces four centuries of dialogue between the artists and naturalists of the Muséum. It suits families who like a garden walk with some history along the way.
