The Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace occupies part of the former Le Bourget airport, north of Paris (3 esplanade de l'Air et de l'Espace, 93350 Le Bourget). Across more than 125,000 sq m and 12 halls, it tells the story of aviation and the conquest of space, with two Concordes, a Boeing 747 and a Douglas C-47 Dakota that you can board. Allow at least 2.5 hours for the historical collections.

Highlights

The two Concordes

The Boarding Pass ticket lets you step inside both Concordes, as well as the Boeing 747 and the Douglas C-47 Dakota. The Concorde hall will be closed on Sunday 18 October 2026 because of the Aérorun event.

It is included in the Check In ticket, along with the permanent displays and the temporary exhibition. The route is both chronological and thematic, spread over 12 halls.
