Excellent souvenir que celui de cette visite "individualisée" puisqu'il n'y avait pas d'autres visiteurs et que les visites sont guidées (ou non selon la préférence de chacun). Jeune guide charmante et intéressante qui connaît bien son sujet. Différents domaines sont abordés au cours de cette visite due à la richesse des activités de Théophraste Renaudot. Possibilité d'imprimer son exemplaire de "La Gazette", mise en scène par des mannequins, expos temporaires (très intéressante sur les dessins de presse)...
