Organise my visit to L’Envol des Pionniers
Are you developing an educational project within your organisation linked to planes, pilots, mail or even Toulouse heritage? Are you looking for a fun outing to for the children? Explore L’Envol des Pionniers.
In the historic buildings where the great love story between Toulouse and aircraft began, follow in the footsteps of the famous pilots Mermoz, Guillaumet, St Exupéry and their comrades. Meet the men and women, in a variety of professions, who collectively took on a crazy challenge: linking Toulouse to Santiago de Chile by crossing a desert, flying over the ocean and even climbing the highest mountain in the world. The mail had to get through, they had to surpass themselves!
L’Envol des Pionniers passes on this human and technical adventure in an immersive and fun way to inspire young people to become, themselves, the pioneers of tomorrow.
