Audio GuideCurie Museum

Welcome to the Musée Curie, located in the heart of Paris at one Rue Pierre et Marie Curie in the fifth arrondissement. This historic museum, founded in nineteen thirty-four following the death of Marie Curie, is housed in the very building where she carried out her pioneering work from nineteen fourteen to nineteen thirty-four. The former laboratory and office still embody the spirit of discovery and radiological research that characterised her career.

Inside, you can explore historical scientific instruments and equipment dating from before nineteen forty. The museum narrates the story of how Irène Joliot-Curie and Frédéric Joliot-Curie achieved the discovery of artificial radioactivity—a breakthrough that earned them the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in nineteen thirty-five. Their contributions are displayed alongside an archive rich in photographs and documents chronicling the development of radioactivity and the enduring legacy of the Curie family.

In two thousand and twelve, a significant renovation, supported by Ève Curie, was completed to ensure that every visitor experiences a connection to both science and history.
