Musee Parc des Dinosaures

About
The Museum is in the heart of one of the largest paleontological sites in Europe (15 sq miles).

A footpath leads the visitor through a 121/2 acre pine wood, on a voyage back in time over millions of years, well illustrated by skeletons, reconstitutions, displays of the paleontological remains found on site, and explanatory notices.

The voyage takes the visitor on a fabulous scientific adventure.
Discover the largest complete skeleton in the world in the Mèze Dinosaur Museum-Park!
The Brachiosaurus was one of the largest dinosaurs, some 80 ft long and weighing 50 tons! 

Discovery
In March 1996, prospecting amongst the rocky outcrops on the Mèze plain that date from the Mesozoic Era, more precisely from the Upper Cretaceous (65 million years ago), Alain Cabot discovered a great many dinosaur nests with one of the world's largest collections of eggs laid by several species of dinosaur. 
 
The discovery helped show that there was a continuity between the sites previously discovered in French Provence and the Pyrenees.

Hours:
The Museum is open every day of the year except December 24, 25 and 31 and January 1.
The Museum can be open for groups in the morning subject to prior reservation.
