WELCOME

Elements Street is a science centre for the youngest. It comprises of three floors of fun, experiments and physical activities that support the comprehensive development of the child. The main exhibition, which is inspired by the five elements (fire, water, earth, air and life), allows the youngest to discover the secrets of the world in an interesting and attractive way.

We welcome guests of all ages! We recommend Elements Street especially for children aged 3 to 10 years. However, we are open to families with children of all ages and even younger children will find something for themselves, although not all attractions will be suitable for them. Teenagers and adults will not be bored either. In our centre, there are rooms, such as the Toddler Service Office, where, in comfortable conditions, you can feed or change the youngest offspring. We have prepared facilities for people with disabilities as well– there is an elevator, signs in Braille, and the distances between the exhibits are at least 90 centimetres to allow wheelchairs to reach everywhere.

Entrance to Elements Street takes place in three two-hour slots:

  • from Tuesday to Friday starting at 10:00, 12:30 and 16:00,
  • on Saturday and Sunday starting at 10:00, 13:00 and 16:00. 

Before the visit, it is worth checking the availability of tickets on our website, as they become sold out just before the entrance time quite often.

The exhibition can be accessed only in changed shoes or socks. Wearing comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement is also a good idea. We advise to leave jewellery or other accessories at home or in the safe deposit box (you will need a PLN 2 coin). Before entering the exhibition, adults and children receive wristbands, which are necessary to pass through the gates and at some exhibits. On Elements Street, children are under the supervision of their parents or adult guardians.

BIRTHDAY PARTIES

We also offer organisation of birthday parties for children – on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays you can throw a birthday party combined with the visit to our exhibition. We offer two options: on Friday – an hour of independent fun with two hours at the exhibition or a Saturday-Sunday option: an hour of games led by our animators and two hours at the exhibition.

For organized groups, in addition to visiting the exhibition, we also offer classes as part of the University of the Elements – unique lessons in the setting of the Elements Street. Classes are based on the core curriculum provided for a specific stage of education. Together with the participants, we follow the lead theme by performing tasks, making observations, asking questions and looking for answers, learning through practice and fun. 

The University of the Elements and the birthday parties are conducted by animators in Polish.

We organize a number of special events throughout the year, so make sure you follow us on social media to receive up to date information about those.

We also encourage you to visit the Science and Technology Centre, where in a setting of a historic, revitalized power plant, we present three educational trail: Energy Conversion, Microworld – Macroworld, and Development of Knowledge and Civilization.
