ARTIS Micropia

Visit the only museum of microbes in the world, located next to the ARTIS Zoo and just 10 minutes from downtown. Microbes are everywhere around us, in the air, on our skin, and in our bodies. They contribute to food production, our health, and play an important role in nature. At Micropia, you can explore the world of microbes through live exhibits, microscopes, interactive presentations, and explanations from laboratory technicians. During May school holidays at ARTIS-Micropia, discover how microbes contribute to oxygen production and life on Earth. You can also visit the ARTIS-Groote museum to explore the links between humans, animals, plants, and microbes, or continue your visit at the ARTIS Zoo. Includes: Admission to ARTIS-Micropia
