Museo Participativo de Ciencias

The slogan of the museum is "Touching Allowed". Children have a great time moving, switching and pressing levers, buttons and pedals along the way, getting a true "hands on experience".

Throughout the museum, they can experiment with laser beams, see how a huge camera works and even fly. The museum is divided into thematic modules. There are, for example, sectors dedicated to visual perception, electricity, magnetism and food. All these ingenious games are intended for kids between six and fifteen years of age, but adults can also participate, have fun and may be learn some too. The museum operates on weekend hours during the summer months.
