Foucault Pendulum showing rotational movement of the Earth
The Copernicus Science Centre, one of the first institutions in Poland where visitors will be able to carry out experiments explaining the laws of science will open on the bank of the Vistula River in Warsaw on September 3.

It will include hundreds of interactive exhibits, for both children and adults, demonstrating how the world around us works. The focus will be on understanding the essence of phenomena, rather than on telling the story of scientific progress.

The exhibits at this hands-on Centre can be touched and manipulated in order to perform experiments. By setting these experiments in motion and watching the results, visitors can grasp even complex natural phenomena.

The organizers promise to showcase cutting-edge technological solutions that scientists are only just developing.

The Copernicus Science Centre is a cultural institution created at the joint initiative of the City of Warsaw, the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education, and the Polish Ministry of National Education.
