Dole · Jura · Bourgogne-Franche-Comté
Louis Pasteur's birthhouse in Dole, classified as a Historic Monument and labeled "Maisons des Illustres" in 2011, traces the scientific work of the French scholar through a journey exploring his research fields: crystallography, fermentations, silkworm diseases, and the rabies vaccine. Located on the edge of the Tanners' Canal, it is the first museum in France dedicated to Pasteur and occupies a central place in understanding his scientific destiny. The museum offers interactive digital devices, including a serious game on digital tables and the Jur'Aventure application, as well as family workshops and guided tours, particularly during summer. The birthhouse establishes itself as a place for contemporary inquiry into science and the figure of the scholar, combining artistic, social, and symbolic approaches.
