Located in the charming town of Suresnes, just a short distance from Paris, the Musée d'Histoire Urbaine et Sociale de Suresnes (MUS) offers visitors a captivating journey through the history of the city's urban and social development. Housed in the historic Suresnes Longchamp train station dating back to 1889, this museum is a must-visit for history enthusiasts and those interested in understanding the transformation of Suresnes over the centuries.
The MUS takes visitors on a fascinating exploration of Suresnes' past through its seven thematic sequences. Using a combination of collections, multimedia devices, and multi-sensory experiences, the museum offers a comprehensive understanding of the city's evolution. From its origins as a wine village to its current status as a thriving urban center, the MUS showcases the economic, social, and architectural development of Suresnes.
One of the highlights of the MUS is its focus on the urban and social projects initiated by Henri Sellier, a prominent figure in Suresnes' history. The museum highlights Sellier's vision for social urbanism during the interwar period, with particular emphasis on the Cité-jardins neighborhood and the École de plein air. These projects exemplify the ideals of creating a harmonious living environment for the city's residents.
The MUS offers a modern and immersive museum experience. The museum's permanent collection is spread across two levels of the former train station, connected by a grand staircase. The extension of the museum houses temporary exhibitions and a workshop space for educational activities and conferences. The museum incorporates cutting-edge technologies, such as topographic models, olfactory stations, films, and interactive touch screens, to provide visitors with interactive presentations of the city's transformation over the centuries.
The MUS itself is an architectural marvel. Designed by the renowned architectural firm Encore heureux Architectes, in collaboration with AAVP and PL architectures, the museum seamlessly blends the historic train station with a contemporary extension. The new facade, resembling a ribbon, features openings that encourage pedestrian circulation, integrating the museum into the daily life of Suresnes residents. The architectural design also prioritizes sustainability, with the rehabilitation of the historic building to improve its thermal performance.
The MUS is open throughout the year, offering visitors the opportunity to explore the rich history of Suresnes at their convenience. Whether you're a history buff, an architecture enthusiast, or simply curious about the city's past, the MUS provides a unique and engaging experience for all.
