Fun at the train station today, getting tickets for the trip to Munich, and a visit to the Musée des Arts et Métiers. This collection of all sorts of industrial design models has been housed in this cathedral-looking building since the early 1800s. The buildings history is as interesting as the collection, starting as a chapel by 710 AD, pillaged and destroyed in the late 900s, rebuilt in 1060. For more history, google Saint-Martin-des-Champs Priory. I should also mention the original Foucaults Pendulum was there until it was destroyed in 2010 - no other details!
