In 2010 the center is open on the second sunday of each month from the 11th April until the 10th October inclusive and during our open weekend. See our diary for details.

The "Centre Denis Papin" is wheelchair accessible. Access to the site and the ground floor of the building is step-free and we have a lift for access to other floors in the centre. There will normally be someone in attendance who can speak to you in English.
