Not a big museum but very well done. Make sure to visit the upper floor with the materials exhibition. You can get lost there for hours, finding out all kinds of fascinating things about materials and products!

Always a good exhibition, and a delicious cafe to have lunch in! Definitely a hideaway, this cafe. Very cozy, like a well-kept secret. oops.

we checked out the materials archive with a group of kids, and they liked it a lot (especially the hands on "experiments")

Amazing museum, also for children as there are a lot of interactive elements and things that are allowed to touch. Price is very fair, children are for free until age of 16. I especially loved the physical part of the materialarchiv.ch. It allows to get to know different materials and their use. There is so much information which is presented with so much love and care, I was really impressed.

Very good exhibition. Liked the 3D prints of mathematical objects, and exploration of spaces.
