Tom Tits Experiment, Science museum in Södertälje, Sweden
Tom Tits Experiment is a science museum in a former factory building that spreads hundreds of interactive stations across several floors covering physics, mathematics, biology, and technology. The exhibition invites visitors to discover for themselves how different phenomena work.
The facility first appeared as a temporary exhibition in 1985 before finding a permanent home in spaces of a former industrial company. This transformation of factory space into a learning center shows how old buildings can serve new purposes.
The place reflects the region's industrial past and shows how scientific curiosity brings people of all ages together. Visitors experience how science works in everyday life and are encouraged to experiment for themselves.
Your visit works best when you take time to try the many stations, since each one requires hands-on action. Good shoes and comfortable clothes help when exploring the different areas spread across multiple floors.
A special highlight is the large hamster wheel where visitors can run inside and feel the forces created by the movement. This device turns physical laws into a direct experience.
