L'âge d'or des sciences arabes

From october 25 2005 to march 19 2006
Science & technology
The aim of the exhibition is to show the extraordinary development sciences underwent during the golden age of the Arab-Muslim civilization (VIIIth-XVth centuries). The different disciplines included in Arab science are looked at from the aesthetic, pedagogic and fun modes. The itinerary deals with the creation and spreading of know-how through manuscripts, experiments and the practice with instruments and tools, and finally the results through objects and artifacts.
