Air and Space Museum
France's Air and Space Museum is certainly the oldest aeronautics museum in the world. It was created in Meudon following the First World War, moved to the Bourget in 1975. Since the opening of the Main Gallery, where the oldest aircraft are displayed, it offers a collection of over 180 machines giving a complete panorama of the aerospace area, from the original "heavier than air" glider Massiat-Biot (1879) to the Ariane rocket.
The Main Gallery houses a unique collection of flying machines which once belonged to the aviation's pioneers: Santos-Dumont, Farman, Bleriot, Fabre, Garros. Five other halls facing Le Bourget's runways depict the conquest of the air from the period between the two world wars up until the present day. Not to miss:
In the Concorde's Hall: The prototype 001 Concorde, The Mirage IV n°9, the most beautiful aircrafts of WW2
In the Hall from 1918 to 1939:A fuselage of a Farman "Goliath", civilian transport aircraft in 1919.
