Maritime website Figaro Nautisme announces the "grand reopening of the Musée national de la Marine in Paris," designed by Casson Mann.

"Passing through the doors of the museum, the visitor is immediately immersed in the world of the sea thanks to a scenography that solicits their emotions and senses via olfactory, sound and visual devices."

"Punctuated by seven spaces, the course opens onto an immersive boat hull. After a first stopover on the emblematic models and models of boats, visitors leave for the first crossing, passing through the port of Le Havre. This room illustrates the transformations and evolution of the maritime economy, the professionalization of port trades, the transport of goods and passengers, and explores the major ecological issues of our time."

"After a stop centered on the art of finding one's bearings at sea and navigation tools, the expedition continues with a second crossing tackling more emotional aspects, highlighted by a large animated 360-degree wave. This space approaches two visions of the sea: one romantic through the eyes of the navigators, authors, artists whom it inspires; the other threatening through the dangers and shipwrecks it causes, at the origin of the values ​​of mutual aid and solidarity characteristic of sailors."

"The journey ends with the naval power of France and the French Navy, its historical and technological evolution, from Colbert to the latest generation submarines. The public thus enters a model of a new generation aircraft carrier and reconstructions of submarine cabins where they can try their hand at the assault simulator."

"The visitor is immediately immersed in the world of the sea thanks to a scenography that solicits their emotions and senses via olfactory, sound and visual devices."
