CosmoCaixa is a leading science museum located in Barcelona and managed by the «la Caixa» Foundation. It is dedicated to promoting scientific knowledge and curiosity through interactive and engaging exhibits. The museum covers a wide range of scientific disciplines, including physics, chemistry, biology, geology, and astronomy.

One of its main attractions is the Universe Room, which takes visitors on a journey from the Big Bang to the complexities of the human brain.

CosmoCaixa also includes a Geological Wall that explains Earth’s physical processes and interactive areas like Clik and Flash for children to explore scientific concepts through play. With its combination of permanent exhibitions, temporary displays, and educational workshops, CosmoCaixa is a dynamic center for science communication and discovery, appealing to both children and adults.
