There are also a whole host of other exhibits to explore: from the Forsherwelt galleries, which are designed to introduce children up to the age of 10 to the fascinating world of science and laboratory, to the interactive galleries dedicated to Earth sciences, nature, the human body, international cultures, and even a toddler play area.
