Explorium

Explorium’s mission is to inspire curious minds to discover the wonders of science through sport and hands-on experiences in three sections: Science, Sport and Junior. It offers real 21st century fun for all ages. Conquer your fears in Explorium’s climbing section or venture through one of the world’s longest indoor caving structures and test your courage with a leap of faith.
