Phänomenta Lüdenscheid, Science museum in Lüdenscheid, Germany.
Phänomenta is a science museum in Lüdenscheid with more than 100 interactive exhibits spread across multiple floors. Visitors can directly engage with and explore how physical and technological phenomena work through hands-on experimentation.
The museum was founded in the 1980s as part of a network of interactive science centers that started in Flensburg. From there, the concept expanded to other German cities, including Lüdenscheid.
The museum connects scientific principles to the local manufacturing and craft traditions of the city. Visitors see how physics and engineering shaped the practical work of artisans in the community.
The exhibits are accessible to both children and adults, allowing everyone to learn and explore at their own pace. The building is straightforward to navigate, with different areas on multiple floors that let visitors plan their route flexibly.
One of the main attractions is a sphere that rolls uphill, defying what visitors expect and revealing one of physics' most intriguing puzzles. This display shows how what we see can be deceiving, and reality often works in surprising ways.
