Experimentarium

Fodor's Review:

In the beachside town of Hellerup is the Experimentarium, where more than 300 exhibitions are clustered in various "Discovery Islands," each exploring a different facet of science, technology, and natural phenomena. A dozen body- and hands-on exhibits allow you to take skeleton-revealing bike rides, measure your lung capacity, stir up magnetic goop, play ball on a jet stream, and gyrate to gyroscopes. Once a bottling plant for the Tuborg Brewery, this center organizes one or two special exhibits a year; past installations have included interactive exhibits of the brain and tongue-wagging, life-size dinosaurs. Take Bus 6 or 650S from Rådhus Pladsen or the S-train to Hellerup; transfer to Bus 21 or 650S. Alternatively, take the S-train to Svanemllen Station, then walk north for 10 minutes.

  • Cost: DKr 115
  • Open: Mon. and Wed.-Fri. 9:30-5, Tues. 9:30-9, weekends and holidays 11-5
