Visit our facilities

Practical Information

The tour of the Europe’s spaceport's facilities will take you to the heart of the control centres, as well as to the launch areas for our former Ariane 5 and Soyuz launchers, and our new Ariane 6 launcher.

 

You'll learn more about how a launch is prepared and carried out at CSG, and about the impact of space activities on the environment.

 

The tours take place while the launchers and satellites are being prepared for their next mission: depending on operations, the tour routes may be modified. For safety reasons, visits are also suspended the day before, the day of and the day after launches.

Accessibility

 

People with reduced mobility, permanent or temporary motor or mental disabilities, or having difficulty moving around with or without assistance, are invited to contact the Visits Office to find out whether a visit is possible or whether it can be arranged.

 

As an industrial site, the Europe’s spaceport is subject to strict evacuation procedures to guarantee the safety of the public and staff in the event of an accident. The Visits Office therefore reserves the right to refuse a visitor if sufficient conditions to ensure their safety or that of other people cannot be met.
