Dynamikum

Dynamikum in Pirmasens is a hands-on science museum themed around motion. About 150 experiment stations on 4,000 square metres are grouped into eight areas, from friction and rotation to sport. Favourites include the two slides and the rotating house, which looks from outside as if its visitors must be tumbling over. It sits in a former shoe factory, and some stations nod to the town's shoemaking tradition.
