The Cit\'e des Sciences. Terrific place, but brush up on your French before 
you go, because all the explanations are in French - or were, 18 months ago.

Another wonderful technology museum, with an *incredible* computer section,
is the Deutsches Museum in Munich. They have a Cray 1 in there, as well as
numerous calculating machines that go waaaaay back. Plan on a couple of days,
and don't go when you're so hung over that all you want to do is sleep :-).
