Techmania Science Center

Techmania Science Center - click on the picture to enlargeThe science center Techmania in Pilsen is a unique project in the Czech Republic. It’s a place that will convince you that science is not only about doing research but it can offer a lot of entertainment as well. Located in the old premises of Škoda company, Techmania is a suitable place not only for school groups visits but also for families and wide public.

Techmania Science Center is based on exhibits that explain a particular mathematical or physical principle by means of game-like activities. The interactivity involves visitors making the exhibits move, so the natural principle is demonstrated by the particular process. The main advantage is that learning is based on personal experience.

The goal of the project Techmania Science Center is to help the public, especially young people, get more familiar with the development of human knowledge and show how it is used in technology.  Models of trams and trolley -buses and a steam engine from the year 1909 are also a part of the exhibition.

In the premises of Techmania, Europe Direct Pilsen Infomation centre is located. The centre provides public with a wide range of information about the EU.
