A combined ticket for 15 Euro/person gets you entry to a light and sound show, the Musée Historique, a Knights house, and the Maritime Museum. The ‘light and sound’ show is hilariously bad in a cringeworthy way but does provide some interesting information on the historical development of the Mont Saint Michel and the changes that took place over time. The Musée Historique is very interesting and includes exhibits on medieval weaponry, coinage, sculpture and more. In the garden you will find the Périscope which is so interesting and well worth doing. Afterwards you will travel below the Musée to the prisons which include Madam Tussaud-esque figures. The Chevalier’s home is beautifully decorated with surviving medieval furnishings and is astonishing to walk through each floor. What it must have been like to live there! His wife, Tiphaine, appears to have been a very interesting woman and half the exhibit is about her. Unfortunately the Maritime Museum is difficult to find and we ran out of time to search for it but it sounded great with info about the local environment. I know others have said the ticket isn’t worth it but I would only agree with that if you don’t speak/read French at all. There are no English explanations throughout some of the exhibits and the light and sound show is only in French. Only in French. It might have been great 30 years ago, but today it's just bad. The guys in the entrance stop us to sell us the tickets without even warning us that everything was in French, he even ask us our language previously. After buying the ticket and get it in. We came back to complain and ask if the rest of the museums were only in French as well. When I ask my money back he suddenly did not understand English. He literally told me "Sorry, I do not speak English", felt like scamming, for real. The sound and light show was definitely my favourite of the four as I at least learned something and could warm up from the rain outside (but I understand French). The other museums are in terrible need of a clean and update. The maritime ‘museum’ especially is basically a grandfather’s attic of boat models in different states of disrepair. It’s so terrible we laughed! Wanted to hear about the history of the Abbey, but you’ll experience a French only projector experience from 30 years ago with a puff of smoke enjoy!! (AVOID!!!) Scam is a strong word, but it's definitely not worth the 9e. I wanted to learn more about the engineering of the abbey, and I learned absolutely nothing - all the info presented had already been shared in the audio guide of the abbey. Unlike other attractions in the area, this one is 100% in French with very few visual aids to communicate what is happening, so I wouldn't even consider going unless you are at a B2+ level. Show was so hilariously bad that the main appeal of this attraction was getting to describe it to people afterwards. It was 5' cooler than the outside on a 31' day so it may still have a place in a post-climate change world. Biggest scam the “museum” is compose of 2 rooms full of mini boat with 15 screen (14 not working) a video projector that show you a video made in 1990. Run away from it asap Don't waste your money. We were very disappointed. Paid as part of 4 so called museum/ experience. Extremely outdated, not maintained or cleaned at all. Basically a scam for taking money from tourist. I could build better museum in my back garden in a shed.
