Merci
Le musée est très beau et propre, l'accueil est professionnel et bienveillant avec une présentation du musée et de la forêt de Bercé, des propositions d'activités aux enfants ou encore des conseils de randonnées.
Au rez-de-chaussée, une exposition temporaire et à l'étage, un espace ludique et sensoriel dédié à la forêt de Bercé, mais aussi l'activité de l'ONF, les métiers du bois.
L'ensemble est vraiment très bien fait, très intéressant et adapté à tous.
Parcours pédagogique avec des petits livrets pour les enfants qui a bien plu à notre grand de 7 ans.
Les personnes à l'accueil sont très sympas et bienveillantes envers les enfants. Vous pouvez également leur demander des lieux à visiter dans la forêt de Bercé.
