Micropia

The museum facility is based on the presentation of knowledge in the field of life and occurrence of microorganisms not as a source of disease, but as an inseparable element of human life and functioning. It is the only museum of its kind in the world.

The object focuses on two different assumptions: presenting a positive perspective of the existence of microorganisms and creating an international cognitive platform for microbiology. Therefore, the exhibition is a kind of bridge connecting and bringing tourists closer to the complicated world of natural sciences.

Most exposures focus on the daily life of microorganisms. Interestingly, both live and virtual clusters of these creatures are presented. One of the interactive forms of education is a machine called Kiss-O-Meter measuring the amount of microorganisms that pairs share when kissing.
