Madatech

Probably the best museum for adults and kids alike, in Israel. Many interactive displays, changing and new exhibits from time to time, making a revisit worthy. The LEGO playroom on the bottom floor can fill an hour on its own. Parking might be a bit tricky, but I’ve managed to every time I’ve visited.

Very nice science museum, inside a beautiful old building in Haifa. Very nice physics examples, however some of them are not operating because of lack of maintenance. Tickets are quite expensive but the children were interested and enjoyed the museum.

Madatech, Israel’s National Museum of Science, Technology and Space, is a true wonderland for everyone from age 2 to 99. Housed in the historic Technion building where Einstein once planted a palm tree, this museum brings hands-on science to life in ways you won’t find anywhere else. Tip: On a typical Saturday afternoon there’s almost no line at the ticket counter, but buying online in advance saves you ₪5 per ticket. Inside the first building, you’ll explore three floors of interactive exhibits. The upper two levels are filled with live experiments on mechanics, electricity generation (you can crank a real dynamo yourself!), electric-car steering, light spectra, airflow, waves and frequencies, sound, pressure and even space exploration. On the ground floor, little engineers can run wild in a giant Lego zone, splash around in the water playground building dams and sluices, navigate mazes and try out hands-on construction tables. Outside, the Noble Energy Science Park invites you to pull, push and climb giant installations powered by wind, sun and water. You’ll see Archimedes’ screws, computer-controlled fountains and a 400-seat amphitheater for impressive water-and-light shows. Don’t miss the second building with its rotating exhibitions. We loved “Behind the Screen,” a digital show complete with chroma-key studios, immersive projections and an anatomically detailed tour of the human circulatory system. There’s always something new on display, from space missions to historical collections. Finally, check out the Wanger Family Fab-Lab and education wing, where you can design your own 3D prints and join workshops in robotics, genetics and environmental science. Madatech is more than a museum—it’s a place where curiosity sparks and everyone rediscovers the joy of discovery.

Great experience, I loved that they had you fill in a sticker with your phone number on it and attached it to your kid encased you get separated. There's water play, so consider bringing a change of clothes.

Great hands-on experience for kids and super engaging. The bottom floor is suitable for toddlers, and the first floor is great for kids. The second floor is awesome for bigger kids/teenagers to learn. Kids from all ages can find something that interests them here. It’s a huge place. Three hours easily passed without notice.

Amazingly kid friendly place! Truely a great place to experience and try all kinds of science principals, wonderful for kids and adults alike. Spent almost 3 hours here, couldve easley stayed for more. Water, smoke, light, wheel, magic, air flow, electricity and so much more to experience.

Great science museum, the kids love it every time we go there! In the summer they turn on the splash pad Fountain and they loce to get wet in it, bring bathing suits! Sukkah for sukkot is provided on the campus.

We had to the pleasure to visit at the museum, this is full day family experience, a lot of information, great opportunity to learn, for the kids and the adults, over all, in, for Israelis the place clean and organize. Got packed after 4 pm, when the place became open for free.
