The great adventure of the Luxembourg Science Center
It is one of the rare places where the sciences are suddenly within everyone’s reach. A veritable temple of knowledge, the Luxembourg Science Center offers exciting discoveries all year round, between shows and explorations.
Who said that scientific and technological culture was not accessible to everyone? Certainly not the Luxembourg Science Center team, whose fifteen scientific mediators welcome the public throughout the year.
” Be an actor rather than a spectator »
By crossing the doors of this place full of surprises, opened in 2017, visitors dive into a unique journey at the crossroads of science and technology. A place accessible to both children and their parents without forgetting their grandparents.
” The real strength of the Luxembourg Science Center is that with each visit, you always learn something new. It is an educational place but above all playful and finally perhaps a little magical too… “says Dany Fernandes, the communication manager.
With the many experiences and shows offered on site, the museum is ultimately much more like a discovery center. ” With the diversity of our activities, here we are not content simply to visit, we are actors rather than spectators “, continues Dany Fernandes.
Dive into exploration
Science, technology, there is something for everyone at the Luxembourg Science Center, whether you come with family or friends. A major part of this veritable palace of discoveries: the exploration room offers the public no less than a hundred interactive stations!
Inside, incredible experiences await. Unusual and astonishing, the interactive animations are an opportunity for visitors to come true with different phenomena: between the table football match played against a robot, the largest plasma ball in the world and as many other experiences that can happen to see its hair to stand on end or to a car with the sheer force of his arms.
Open to all audiences, the Luxembourg Science Center has made it a point of honor to allow everyone to experience the best possible exploration. In this sense, each interactive station is equipped with touch screens, offering an explanation in five languages: Luxembourgish, French, German, English and Portuguese.
The “science shows”, real intelligent shows
Along with the exploration room, this is the other essential feature of the discovery centre. The Science Shows, each more spectacular than the next, offer visitors the opportunity to learn more about certain scientific, technical and technological subjects in complete immersion.
Magnetism, electricity, optics, acoustics, fluids… in total, around twenty shows (lasting approximately 45 minutes and accessible from the age of 6) were reported each day, in French, Luxembourgish, English or German. . For example, entering the Faraday cage (during the Electricity show) allows you to safely touch impressive electric arcs.
” Among these Science Shows, the Planetarium is probably the most coveted at present. For one session, it allows young and old to travel in space and through the stars “, rejoices Dany Fernandes.
Located in the heart of Differdange, a few steps from the train station, the Luxembourg Science Center is definitely the ideal place for those looking for those who have an activity of choice to learn while having fun.
