Step into one of Warsaw’s most interactive attractions at the Copernicus Science Centre (Centrum Nauki Kopernik) — a place where science, technology and curiosity come together through hands-on experiences. Located on the banks of the Vistula River, it invites visitors of all ages to explore and discover how the world works.

Science through experience

The Copernicus Science Centre is not a traditional museum. Instead of passive displays, it offers interactive exhibitions where visitors can touch, test and experiment. Inside, you’ll find hundreds of exhibits covering physics, biology, chemistry and human perception — with no fixed route, allowing you to explore freely at your own pace.

A typical visit lasts around 2–3 hours, depending on how deeply you engage with the exhibits.

Exhibitions and attractions

The centre offers a wide range of experiences for both children and adults:

• interactive science exhibitions
• Planetarium with immersive shows about space
• workshops, laboratories and live demonstrations
• zones for younger visitors
• temporary exhibitions and events

Planetarium shows are separate and usually last 45–50 minutes.

Visiting Copernicus Science Centre

Tickets are sold for specific entry times, but once inside, you can stay until closing. The centre is very popular, so it’s recommended to book tickets in advance, especially on weekends and holidays.
