The European project, from dream to unity
An educational and interactive exhibition
The permanent exhibition traces the history of European integration after the Second World War. As a venue for knowledge and exchange, it explains the role and workings of the European institutions, while highlighting some of Europe’s pioneering figures and Strasbourg’s central role in the European project. A section devoted to Franco-German friendship and cross-border cooperation in the Upper Rhine area provides an overview of European integration at regional and local level.
The visitor trail includes multimedia tools (maps, quizzes, audiovisuals with menus) that encourage visitors to get involved and test their knowledge.
The informative and concise texts are available in French, English and German.
The exhibition is fully accessible to the hearing impaired, thanks to the subtitling of the audiovisual content.
Two tactile maps are designed for the visually impaired and blind.
