Removed from Unnamed collection

Nestled just south of the historic Palazzo delle Albere, in the newly developed district of Le Albere, you'll find the MUSE. This intriguing science museum was brought to life by the renowned architect Renzo Piano. It's a place where science and technology come together to highlight how humans interact with the environment. MUSE is particularly inviting for young people, children, and families, offering a delightful journey through the realms of science and nature.

The exhibitions creatively use the metaphor of a mountain to connect themes of life on Earth, the early Alpine inhabitants, the rich history of the Dolomites, and the natural wonders of the Alps. MUSE isn't just about static displays; it hosts a variety of events and temporary exhibitions that keep the experience fresh and exciting. One standout feature is the “Maxi Ooh!” room, designed especially for children aged 0 to 6 years. This sensory playground invites little ones to engage their senses through touch, smell, sight, and sound. It's a guaranteed fun-filled adventure for the youngest explorers!

Beyond the exhibits, the museum itself is a marvel, with architecture that mirrors the peaks surrounding Trento. The building is a testament to sustainable design, integrating green spaces and natural light, which enhances the visitor experience. Whether you're a science enthusiast or a curious traveler, MUSE offers a captivating blend of education and entertainment.
