About
The Museo de la Ciencia in Valladolid is an interactive science museum on the Avenida de Salamanca, in the city of Valladolid in Castile and León, Spain. It is also known in English as the Science Museum.
What you will find
The museum is built around hands-on exhibits, so most of the displays invite you to touch, test and try things for yourself rather than simply read about them. Its themes cover physics, astronomy and the natural sciences, and it includes a planetarium for those interested in the night sky and space.
- Interactive exhibits across physics and the natural sciences
- A planetarium with astronomy-focused shows
- Educational programs for different ages
- Rotating temporary exhibitions
- Scientific demonstrations
Who it suits
The museum is a popular destination for families, and it works well for children who like to explore by doing. Adults with an interest in science will also find plenty to engage them, particularly the planetarium and the temporary exhibitions, which change over time, so a return visit may show something new.
Planning your visit
To check current opening times, prices or the programme of demonstrations and exhibitions, contact the museum by telephone on +34 983 144 300 before you travel. Valladolid itself is a good base for a day out, and the museum can be combined with other stops in the city.
