Address: Mariahilfer Str. 212 , 1140 Vienna

How to get to:

By Metro: U3 stop Johnstrasse and 10 min walk (down the street, then make a left and you’ll see the museum) or U4 stop Schonbrunn.

You can also get here by bus (10A, 57A) and tram (52, 58, 10).

The entrance fee is 10 13 euros / adult.

One of the interesting permanent exhibits is Nature and Knowledge…and it will keep you busy for a long time. There are many experiments to try. Trust me, if you liked physics at school, you’ll be a kid in the candy store no matter what your real age says about you.

Other permanent exhibits are: locomotive, transport, heavy industry, energy, everyday life, at work, media worlds, musical instruments and mini.

Current exhibition is Space. You can to play with a Mars-Rover, use a Docking Station or blast a spaceship into orbit.

We spent 5 (five!) hours in the museum, with a 15 min break to drink coffee. The rude waiter put a damper on things. Boo.

I got to ride a bike to turn on the TV, play with magnets, shoot a rocket into space, make sure my lunar colony was ok, demonstrate Corilios force, be on TV and plenty other things. Sure, the museum was filled with children but…hey, we are children at heart!
