Clore Garden of Science

The Clore Garden of Science is an outdoor science museum on the Weizmann Institute grounds with more than 90 interactive stations. The exhibits demonstrate how physics, solar energy, and water science work through hands-on demonstrations that visitors can operate themselves.

The museum opened in 1998 as part of the Weizmann Institute's effort to make science accessible to the public. Since its founding, it has expanded into a major educational destination serving schools and families across the region.

The museum serves as an educational center where students and families engage with scientific concepts through direct experimentation and hands-on learning activities.

The garden is an outdoor space best visited in mild weather, so wear appropriate footwear and sun protection. Stations are spread across the grounds and accessible on foot, allowing you to spend several hours exploring at your own pace.

The EcoSphere section features a working ecosystem with wet and dry plant zones, fish habitats, and connected water systems all in one outdoor area. Visitors can observe how different environmental elements work together to function as an integrated whole.
