The Mathematikum in Giessen is the first mathematical interactive museum in the world.
Over 170 exhibits open a new door to mathematics. Visitors of all ages and educational backgrounds experiment here: They lay puzzles, build bridges, rack their brains over puzzles, stand in a giant soap bubble skin and much more.

The Mathematikum in Giessen is the first mathematical interactive museum in the world.
Over 170 exhibits open a new door to mathematics. Visitors of all ages and educational backgrounds experiment here: They lay puzzles, build bridges, rack their brains over puzzles, stand in a giant soap bubble skin and much more.
The Mathematikum opens a new door to mathematics: visitors are not confronted with formulas, symbols and calculations, instead they have the chance to make their own experiences in over 170 mathematical experiments. There are logic games, soap-skin experiments, puzzles and much more. The Mathematikum is suitable for young and older visitors, for math-muffers and math freaks as well as for all those who want to experience one of the most exciting sciences. You should plan at least two to three hours for a visit. For the youngest (four to eight year olds) the Mini-Mathematikum is open to all visitors in the afternoons from 3 pm, during holidays and on weekends. In the mornings, this special area is reserved for groups.
