Exhibitions Included in the tour

ÉRIC TABARLY, AN EXTRAORDINARY SAILORGet to know this sailing legend with our host-guides. As well as his skills as a sailor, he demonstrated great ingenuity and innovation in naval design. From one Pen Duick to the next, relive the successes and anecdotes of this great visionary. (Running time 30 min.)

FAMILY DAY TRIPS FOR 7- TO 12-YEAR OLDS* NEW Experiment and have fun with our activity leaders and guides! Discover the fascinating lives of ocean racing skippers through a series of fun, lively activities. (Running time 45 min., up to 16 participants, registration required on the day at the ticket office)

LAND AHOY QUIZ NEW Are you an armchair deckhand or seasoned sea dog? Whatever your age, test your knowledge of the seas and pit yourself against other visitors by answering the questions and winning the title of Sailor of the Day! (Running time 30 min.)

DINGHY SIMULATORS The dinghy simulators replicate the motion of the water and waves. A fun activity to test out new sensations without getting your feet wet!

SAILING 101 ABOARD AN OPTIMIST Kids can learn to sail in a sheltered, roped off 1,000m2 pool during these instructor-led introductory sailing classes aboard an Optimist.

SAILING 101 ABOARD A MINI JI The single-seater Mini JI sport sail boats are perfect for cruising along the Cité de la Voile’s waters. A sailing crash course for grown-ups taught by a sailing instructor!

FROM THE SOLEIL D’ORIENT TO LA COURONNE 11 FEBRUARY TO 19 MARCH 2017This exhibition whisks visitors away on a journey through the fascinating past of the shipbuilding sites on the banks of the Scorff, where ships were built and the city of Lorient developed between the 17th and 19th centuries. By the Mémoire vivante de la construction navale association.

OPTIMIST SINCE 70 YEARS 14 OCTOBER TO 7 JANUARY 2018 The Optimist often brings back childhood memories. This little single-seater sail boat was designed 70 years ago as a learning tool for teaching sailing and regatta cruising. This exhibition takes a look back at the Optimist’s past, how it conquered the world’s hearts and how it was upgraded. By the Cité de la Voile Éric Tabarly.

FAMILY DAY TRIPS FOR 3- TO 6-YEAR OLDS* NEW An activity leader guides kids through a step-by-step miniature lighthouse-making workshop. Children will also learn everything there is to know about lighthouses. What are they for? How can their lights be seen from so far away? (Running time 45 min., up to 16 participants, registration required on the day at the ticket office)

How many times have you been told not to touch what you see in a museum? At l’Annexe, touching is permitted and indeed highly recommended! You’ll be using your hands as well as your entire body. And to boost the sensory experience, this exhibition is a shoe-free zone!

‘PLEASE DO TOUCH’ is a fun, interactive exhibition that invites visitors to explore their tactile facilities by stimulating this sense in as many ways possible! Designed for visitors of all ages and structured around 50 original experiments, the exhibition introduces you to active touching (the act of touching), passive touching (the act of being touched) as well as the emotional aspect (to be touched).

As the very first sense a foetus develops, touch spans a huge variety of different perceptions, both internal and external. How do we perceive pressure, heat or cold? What are our perception thresholds for these stimuli? What are they reliant upon? Is it really painful to lie on a bed of nails? So many questions you’ll see answered in the exhibition’s various themed spaces: “the metal house”, “the stroking tunnel” and “the igloo”, to name but a few.

The “Muchy Touchy” space is dedicated to younger visitors (aged 3 to 6) and is an opportunity for kids to have their sense of touch stimulated.

This sensory temporary exhibition is a hit with young and old alike. A bilingual (French and English) international touring exhibition from Belgian association Apex and adapted especially for l’Annexe, a new cultural venue in Lorient La Base. 50 interactive modules spread across a 400m2 space.

8 April to 3 September 2017
