Game Café
Take a break from everyday life and step into the Game Café at INSPIRIA, where both young and old can enjoy board games of all kinds! Here, you'll find everything from beloved classics like Ludo, Monopoly, and Chess to modern and innovative games that challenge your strategy, teamwork, and creativity.
Whether you're looking for fast, fun games or deeper, more tactical experiences, there's something for everyone. The Game Café is perfect for families, groups of friends, and gaming enthusiasts who want to discover new favorites or relive old memories.
Crime Lab
Welcome to INSPIRIA Crime Lab, an exciting adventure where you become a real detective for a day! Professor Bubble, our eccentric scientist, has lost the secret recipe for his world-famous fizzy powder — and now he needs YOUR help to find it!
In the Crime Lab, you and your team must work together to solve a series of challenging puzzles, crack codes, and uncover hidden clues. Each task brings you one step closer to the legendary recipe. Use logical thinking, be creative, and pay close attention to the hints — sometimes it's the smallest details that make the biggest difference.
Reuse Workshop
At the Reuse Workshop at INSPIRIA, creativity truly gets to bloom! Here, it's all about giving new life to old things — by repairing, redesigning, and creating something completely unique. In a time when sustainability and environmental awareness are more important than ever, we invite young and old alike to learn how to use their imagination to create something new from what we already have.
The workshop is brimming with exciting materials, tools, and inspiration. Maybe you'll transform old clothes into new treasures, build figures from used parts, or repair something that would otherwise have been thrown away? With help and guidance from our skilled staff, the only limit is your imagination.
Deep Dive – experience a world underwater
Explore the secrets and beautiful treasures of the sea in our themed exhibition, "Deep Dive." Dive into this exciting world and learn more about what makes the ocean so vital for us humans, what we use it for, and what threatens it. Bring your family and join us on an exciting journey through the depths of the sea.
At INSPIRIA, you can color beautiful fish and watch them swim around in a large digital aquarium, walk through a vortex tunnel, visit the center's creative workshops – and, of course, there will be opportunities to build with LEGO.
Shows at the centre
The planetarium journey "Deep dive in the universe" in space
We take you on a spectacular planetarium journey in space! An activity host tells about planets, stars, the solar system, the starry sky, galaxies and much, much more, while you sit down in the cinema chair and look up. The planetarium trip is best suited for those over the age of 5. Duration approx. 15–20 min.
Science show
Join us on a journey into the depths where experiments and learning go hand in hand, and get to know the mysterious monsters that live there. We will travel from the surface of the sea to the dark and unknown ocean depths. The show is best suited for those over the age of 3.
360° Film Screening
GyroXtreme
Only available between 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM.
Want to become an astronaut? GyroXtreme is an astronaut simulator that will simulate your journey up into the stratosphere (or perhaps rather back down from the thermosphere?). GyroXtreme reflects the astronaut training on the first Apollo programs and where guests get to experience the violent g-forces that can occur in a rocket launch, while at the same time they are given a coordination task in the form of child's play which immediately becomes more difficult when the world is turned in all directions and at high speed. Height requirement 140 cm.
