AHHAA Science Centre
About This Museum
The AHHAA Science Centre didn't just appear overnight; it grew from a university project in the 90s into Estonia's premier temple of hands-on discovery. Stepping inside is like entering a giant playground for your brain, where the hum of excited chatter mixes with the whirring of fascinating contraptions. You'll find yourself immediately drawn to the massive hamster wheel or gazing up at the suspended car on the tightrope. It’s a place that makes complex ideas feel simple and incredibly fun.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the chance to ride the giant human hamster wheel in the Hall of Technology or catch a show at the planetarium, which transforms astronomy into a breathtaking spectacle. The Green Gate section lets you get hands-on with physics puzzles, and you can even witness a real science theatre show where things might explode (safely, of course).
Visitor Information
You'll find it right in the heart of Tartu at Sadama 1, a city known for its vibrant student life. Be prepared to spend more time than you planned—it's seriously hard to pull yourself away from all the interactive fun.
