About NEMO Science Museum

Dive into the fascinating world of science at Amsterdam's NEMO Science Museum, where hands-on exhibits turn curiosity into discovery. From giant bubbles you can step inside to interactive experiments on wind and light, it's an unforgettable journey for the whole family.

Local Legends & Stories

Housed in a striking Renaissance-style building designed by P.J.H. Cuypers, the same architect behind Amsterdam Central Station, NEMO has been inspiring scientific curiosity since 1923.

Must Do Experiences

Hidden Gems

  • Visit early on weekdays to avoid crowds and enjoy a more relaxed exploration, don't miss the rooftop terrace for stunning views of the Amsterdam canals and skyline, and check the daily schedule for special workshops that aren't always advertised

What Makes it Special

  • The museum's iconic inverted pyramid architecture by Renzo Piano is an attraction in itself, every exhibit encourages active participation rather than passive observation, and the collection seamlessly blends historical science with modern interactive technology
