Museum in the former Suresnes-Longchamp station, to discover the evolution of social urbanism during the interwar period.

The Museum of Urban and Social History (formerly the René-Sordes Museum) opened its doors at the beginning of 2013 in the former Suresnes-Longchamp station building. Visitors can discover the evolution of social urban planning in the commune during the inter-war period thanks to a wealth of documents and objects relating to the industrial heritage and architectural projects of the time. The Granoux collection, which has been in existence since 1926, includes postcards, posters, photos and other objects from European history from the end of the Second Empire to the Third Republic. The museum also offers fun urban tours to (re) discover certain key places, such as the floodgates, the Garden Cities, or the American cemetery. 70,000 objects and documents from the city are available. Urban walks in Suresnes and family workshop.

Petit musée abrité dans une ancienne gare réhabilitée. On (re)découvre avec plaisir et une scénographie claire l'histoire de Suresnes et de cette partie des berges de Seine au passé industriel et ouvrier riche. La Seine aval fut ainsi le berceau de nombreuses industries et entreprises entre la fin du XIXe et le début du XXe siècle (automobile, aéronautique, biscuiterie, parfumerie). L'histoire de l'urbanisme social des cités-jardins, d'exemples d'architecture hygiéniste (Ecole de plein air) comme de l'avenir de la région (exposition sur le Grand Paris) y prennent place également dans les collections permanentes et des expositions temporaires. Accès rapide au pied de la station de Tramway T2, Suresnes Longchamp
