EXPERIMINTA ScienceCenter
About This Museum
Tucked away in Frankfurt's bustling Bockenheim district, the EXPERIMINTA ScienceCenter is a refreshing antidote to the 'do not touch' mantra of traditional museums. The air hums with the sound of cranks turning, balls clattering down intricate tracks, and the delighted shouts of kids—and let's be honest, adults—discovering physics for themselves. Forget dusty display cases; this place is a sprawling playground of over 130 interactive experiment stations where you're the main component. You can lie on a bed of nails, generate a giant soap bubble around yourself, or witness the eerie beauty of a Tesla coil show.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss lying on the authentic bed of nails or trying to pull yourself up on a rope while seated in the famous chair lift. The mesmerizing Tesla coil demonstrations are a crowd favorite, crackling with visible electricity, while the massive soap bubble station lets visitors literally step inside a shimmering film.

Architecture & Building
Housed in a functional, modern building that feels more like a creative workshop or a tech startup than a museum, its industrial vibe perfectly suits the hands-on chaos within.
