The Musée des Arts et Métiers is a Paris museum dedicated to technology and engineering. It is located in the central district of the Marais, inside the ancient abbey of Saint Martin des Champs. The collection of the Musée des Arts et Métiers includes the fascinating stories of the machinery and tools created by scientists and engineers from the 1500s to the present day . Inside the collection are scientific instruments, works of craftsmanship, drawings and sketches of engineering and technological projects. In particular, we note the presence of an original model of Faucault's pendulum, an astrolabe dating back to the early 1500s, a phenographer by Thomas Edison and the very first models of televisions from the early 1930s. Among the inventions there are also some airplanes, a replica of the statue of liberty, an example of the first model of car produced in series by Henry Ford in 1908 and of the robot models recently sent into space. The Musée des Arts et Métiers is divided into 7 departments : scientific instruments, materials, construction, communication, energy, mechanics and transport.
