Discover science with all your senses

© Luxembourg Science Center

Since opening in 2017, the Luxembourg Science Center has been the ideal place for visitors who want to explore the world of science. Interactive experimental stations await eager researchers, and active scientists explain the background in over 20 science shows.

In this workshop, everything is running on all cylinders: In the engine show, you will look into the inner workings of combustion engines, start an eleven-ton diesel engine that is over a hundred years old, learn more about the path from petroleum to the gasoline tank and study the differences between the two predominant combustion engine techniques. You will also learn more about an important figure in the history of the development and invention of the internal combustion engine: Etienne Lenoir (1822-1900) - a Luxembourger!
