This building is one of the most historical ones of San José, because it was a prison in the early nineties until it was renovated in order to create one of the funniest exhibitions, where you can enjoy the more than 3000 square metres and a wide range of activities together with your family.
The museum houses a great diversity of exhibitions like the Human Being Room and the Physical Sciences or Sciences of the Universe Rooms, where you can enjoy with your children in a pleasant and entertaining way.
