The FFBB Museum Space was inaugurated in 2011 and updated in 2016. It is the result of a collaboration between the French Federation of BasketBall and the French Basketball Museum. Visitors can visit the basketball gallery and the Yvan Mainini Research and Documentation Centre. The gallery offers remarkable pieces from the Museum’s collections and the scenography shows the history of basketball and the specificities of its development in France. Jerseys of large teams, equipment of all eras, medals gleaned by the teams of France (at the Olympic Games, World Cup and European Championship) a model of the oldest basketball room in the World, posters, etc. At the Research Centre, usually reserved for researchers, students and journalists, the books of the Basket Museum library and the historical archives of the FFBB can be consulted. A selection of books and documents will be made available to the public. Throughout the day, free visitors can exchange with the members of the Heritage & Legends Commission of the FFBB and the Club des Internationaux who all wore the jersey of the French basketball team.
