What is a science centre?

Technorama allows hands-on experiences of hundreds of natural phenomena and technology. At countless experiment stations visitors can discover natural phenomena first-hand and with all the senses. "Come to grips" – in both senses of the word – with the world.

Everything in Technorama can be touched, played and experimented with: hands on! Learning through play in a science centre by experiencing natural phenomena directly, through art that moves us, through the challenges we create in the labs, through dialogues with family and friends or by building your own machines in the Tinkering Lab.

The Technorama offers variety and inspiration for several days, both in good and bad weather, and arouses curiosity and enthusiasm for science and technology.

Open 365 days a year

The Technorama welcomes its guests 365 days a year. Whether Easter, Ascension Day, Whitsun, 1 August or Christmas – we are there for you. The regular opening hours always apply: The Technorama is open daily from 10 am to 5 pm.
