To celebrate the Olympic and Paralympic Games of Paris 2024, the museum of the Departmental Domain of Sceaux offers a large exhibition devoted to the history of cycles, the balance bike without pedals, invented at the beginning of the nineteenth century, to today’s sporting and recreational practices. A set of 25 ancient cycles is exceptionally presented, alongside old posters, photographs, costumes and toys. Among the objects of curiosity, the steam velocipede by Louis-Guillaume Perreaux (1816-1889), dating from 1870-1871: a unique example considered the very first motorcycle in history! Mediators will be present in the exhibition to answer all your questions.
