People with specific needs
Parking and access reserved for people with reduced mobility, a museum on the ground floor and adapted toilets ensure that the Silex’s is accessible to a greater number.
Schools
To promote the exchange between the museum and the school around their common educational role, the Silex’s teams offer guided tours adapted to each grade (in French or in foreign languages), creative workshops to learn while having fun and events for schools throughout the year. Educational files are also available with the contents of the museum, documents, courses of exploitation in the classroom … To prepare you as well as possible for the visits, the entrance to the museum is free for teachers.
