Learning through trial and study

At your Museum visit there is a lot for you to see, discover and try out. The Geysir Museum in Andernach is full of multimedia exhibits. In each area there are different stations where you can pump, drill, blow and, above all, learn. And each of them has a specific learning effect.

You will learn about geoscientific connections as well as physical and chemical phenomena and processes. For children in particular, the many exhibits mean excitement and fun in equal measure. But the processes also fascinate inquisitive adults time and again.

The exhibits convey knowledge in various ways: digitally, analogue, via audio stations, film sequences and haptics as well as through multimedia installations and, last but not least, through the unique setting.

The "View into the Eifel" in the prelude provides you with interesting information about the volcanoes of the Eifel, both visually and acoustically. Other visual exhibits, such as the "View into the Magma" or the "Walk of Silence" in the museum area, offer unique insights. Depthoffer unique insights. Processes that otherwise take place hidden underground are also presented to you up close with modern technology.

You can try out the haptic exhibits to your heart's content. Some demonstrate physical processes, such as the "pressure test" in the Slate cave. Here you can use levers on two water pipes to change the water pressure and the carbon dioxide supply and test for yourself how much_CO2 is dissolved at which water pressure.
