Children's museum

The Children’s Museum is located in the green zone of Bogotá and is designed to teach adults and children about the role of science, culture and technology in the modern world.

The museum building, located at the crossroads of two busy trails, is surrounded by parks - El Salitre, Simon Bolivar and El Lago. The museum was designed by architect Billy Goebertus and opened to the public in 1987.

The museum presents the following expositions: “Mechanics and Movement”, “Space”, “Oil”, “Optics and Perception”, “Coal” and others. In the Mechanics and Motion department, visitors can get acquainted with the principles of acoustic, mechanical and hydrodynamic devices and see where these principles are used in everyday life. In the Cosmos department you can observe stars and constellations, in the Oil department you can understand how oil is processed and how wide the scope of its derivatives in the modern world is.

Of course, the museum is one of the most visited in the city, and, in addition, offers the opportunity to hold a number of children's events within its walls.
