VIDA! science centrum, Science museum in Brno, Czech Republic.
VIDA! Science Centre is a large museum in Brno featuring many stations where visitors can touch, experiment, and explore, organized into sections covering Planet, Civilization, Human Biology, and the Microscopic World. The exhibits present scientific concepts through hands-on experiments and interactive displays that people operate themselves.
The centre grew out of the Moravian Science Centre Brno project, prepared from 2009 by the South Moravian Region, which obtained an EU grant. Construction in the former Pavilion D of the Brno Exhibition Centre began on 28 June 2013. Partners were shown the finished centre on 28 November 2014, and the public was admitted on 1 December 2014.
The center shows how science shapes everyday life through hands-on stations where visitors discover natural laws in action. The setup invites people of all ages to learn by doing rather than just watching.
The space can be explored at a relaxed pace, with different areas that flow naturally from one to another. It makes sense to plan a full visit and keep younger guests supervised, as many stations invite hands-on experimentation.
The floor staff are called vidátoři: lecturers and guides who run the science experiments and help visitors operate the exhibits. The centre also belongs to the Czech Association of Science Centres.
