Madatech

Madatech is a science museum in Haifa that features interactive exhibits on physics, biology, astronomy, and engineering spread across different spaces. Visitors explore topics by operating devices themselves and conducting experiments rather than simply observing displays.

The building dates to 1912 and was one of the first structures in Israel dedicated to scientific education. The long history of this location shows how the focus on technical education has remained central over many generations.

The museum presents science in a hands-on way that lets children understand natural laws through their own experiments. This practical approach reflects how technology becomes tangible rather than abstract when you can manipulate it directly.

The museum offers guided tours in multiple languages and has different exhibition areas plus an outdoor garden. Visitors should plan for enough time since the exhibits invite active exploration and should not be rushed through.

The outdoor garden contains large mechanical installations where children can explore physical forces by directly operating the equipment. These devices let abstract concepts become immediately understandable through hands-on interaction.
