Familiensonntag im Hygiene-Museum

Why do we particularly like certain smells? What does air weigh? And how do you research smell?
You can find answers to these questions in our new special exhibition"Air. One for all", in the Luftstatt and in the Children's Museum - while experimenting, playing and being creative. In addition, the dance performance "Kosmokörper" invites you to experience the body in a completely different way.
