Universum Bremen
Best time to visit
On weekday mornings there are fewer visitors on site, so you can try out the exhibits in peace. In autumn and winter, the indoor areas offer a cozy refuge from cold weather.
Budget tips
Single tickets cost around 12 euros, children pay about half. On the first Sunday of the month, admission is often reduced or free. The Bremen Card is also worth it for combo tickets and discounts.

About
Quick facts: Over 250 interactive exhibits offer insights into science and technology that you can touch. A famous highlight is the 40-meter-long ball track that amazes visitors.
Highlights: The planetarium hall shows a 360-degree projection of the starry sky, simulating complete movements in real time. In the science center, a vacuum lift offers the feeling of weightlessness, a unique experience here.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes as there is a lot of walking and the experiment stations encourage trying things out.
- Photo spots next to the huge ball track and in the planetarium with a starry sky are especially worthwhile.
- Avoid lunchtime as school groups are often around then.
- Make sure to schedule the live demonstrations in the vacuum elevator, they take place at fixed times.
