Ich mach Mathe! - Das Mitmachmuseum : info and guided tour

Introduction to Ich mach Mathe! – Das Mitmachmuseum

Ich mach Mathe! – Das Mitmachmuseum is an interactive science museum in Mainz, right in the city center, at Große Langgasse 8. Its concept is based on hands-on experimentation, with an experience designed to make mathematics more concrete through exhibits you can touch, test, and try for yourself.

The museum is aimed at visitors who are curious to understand shapes, numbers, illusions, and the logical mechanisms that structure mathematics. Its approach is firmly participatory, which sets it apart from more traditional exhibition spaces and makes it a place focused on direct experience.

In this museum, the emphasis is on active observation and discovery through trial and error. Visitors encounter installations that invite them to compare, manipulate, and think, making mathematics approachable and playful without losing its scientific dimension.

Its location in Mainz, in a central part of the city, places it close to a lively urban setting. Ich mach Mathe! – Das Mitmachmuseum is therefore one of the city’s cultural and scientific attractions, with a clear identity shaped by interactivity and the sharing of knowledge.
