MUSE – Science Museum

In Trento, the museum designed by Renzo Piano

  • "Maxi Ooh!" for children 0-5 year old, with real and virtual sensory stimulations
  • Workshop in collaboration with the global FabLab network
  • The "big void"
  • The rich programme of activities for all ages, which can also be enjoyed online

Dinosaurs, early humans, mammals, glaciers, forests, and much more, all to be discovered: this remarkable science museum, one of the most fascinating in Europe, is striking even from the outside thanks to the innovative architecture of starchitect Renzo Piano, which reflects the mountainous skyline of Trentino.

Once inside, you’ll find there's no shortage of things to explore: from Maxi Ooh!, the area dedicated to younger children (0-5 years), to the workshops and interactive installations. Don’t miss out on a walk through the tropical greenhouse, where you can breathe in the air of an unspoiled corner of Tanzania, accompanied by the thunderous roar of a waterfall.

Finally, the museum offers a packed schedule of events which vary with the seasons, temporary exhibits, and science-related activities and experiences in an immersive itinerary which tells the story of life on Earth as well as looking at local and global issues about how we can build a better future together.
