Reviews
"Interesting stuff to see. Recommend to take kids to this place, they'll have fun and learn about how the technology evolved in the last century. There is a lego room which can keep kids entertained for sometime and take a break, also the experimental items are engaging and amusing. Could be a good plan for a weekend."
"There are some great sections, and then there are some not so much. Kids may enjoy the exhibits on space and old trams, trains. Entry is free, and there are school tours often here. Guidance on exhibits can be better, and a map with the recommended path can help. A nice experience for may be 2 hours. Interactive sections on science, space, and old steam engines will keep kids happy."
"Was here for the Gucci Garden Archetypes exhibition, and definitely appreciated all the hard work being put into the event. Very well thought through, very Instagrammable, and most importantly it was free. Too bad we didn't have time to roam around the many other parts of this large museum, but chanced upon some other interesting looking spaces for sure."
"Admission is free right now. They have a video introducing things in the museum and that was nice. The mini car section and steam engine sections were pretty cool."
