An interactive centre
The centre gathers several hundred interactive exhibits from physics, biology, chemistry and technology — here you do not just look, you experiment for yourself. A separate zone is set aside for the youngest children.
The planetarium and the surroundings
The complex includes the Heavens of Copernicus planetarium with spherical projection. The building stands on the Vistula boulevards — a popular promenade; there is a roof garden beside it. It combines well with a walk along the river.
Practical notes on site
- Very popular — a timed online ticket is strongly recommended
