Galileo-Wissenswelt Fehmarn ., Interactive science museum in Fehmarn, Germany.
Galileo-Wissenswelt Fehmarn is a science museum with two main areas: BioWelt covers evolution and biology, while TechnikWelt focuses on physics and mechanical experiments. The spaces contain hundreds of stations where visitors can directly engage and explore different principles of nature.
The museum was founded to make science accessible to non-specialists and spark curiosity about natural phenomena. Its approach of hands-on learning rather than passive observation shaped how science museums operate in the region.
The exhibits connect scientific phenomena to everyday technology, helping visitors see how science shapes their daily lives. This understanding comes from hands-on exploration rather than lectures or reading panels.
The museum is within walking distance from central Fehmarn and can be explored with or without guided tours. Families should plan for several hours to try most of the activities and exhibits at their own pace.
An earthquake simulator lets visitors feel the force of seismic waves while standing in a controlled space. Such unexpected moments make the visit especially memorable for children and first-time explorers.
