About this tour

  • machines you are allowed to touch and start
  • riddles, ciphers and the great master's inventions

Leonardo da Vinci's workshop is not an ordinary museum. Here everything can be touched, started, tested and explored. Cogs turn, mechanisms work and Leonardo's inventions can be seen in action. The quest turns a museum visit into a real adventure: children become apprentices to the great inventor. They will decode his mirror writing, test his engineering ideas and find out how a man of the 15th century managed to imagine things that became real only centuries later.

How the tour goes

  • Children take on tasks set by “Master Leonardo” and set out to explore his workshop.
  • During the quest they will:
  • decode Leonardo's mirror writing
  • examine his mechanisms and inventions
  • start working models of his machines
  • test how his engineering ideas actually work
  • complete tasks and collect clues
  • The quest runs as a game and a set of experiments, so the children are on the move and exploring the whole time.

What you will see

  • working models of Leonardo's inventions
  • mechanisms you are allowed to start
  • prototypes of flying machines
  • Leonardo's armoured “tank”
  • devices for lifting loads and transmitting power

What you will learn

  • why Leonardo wrote his notes in mirror script
  • which inventions he imagined 500 years before modern technology
  • how his mechanical machines worked
  • what secrets his paintings hide
  • how one artist became an engineer, an architect and a scientist all at once

Special moments of the quest

  • a drawing workshop in Leonardo's style
  • a chance to put on VR goggles and “take off” in Leonardo's flying machine
  • interactive models the children start with their own hands
  • This is a format where children do not just listen — they try, test and are genuinely surprised.

Who it suits

  • children aged 5 and up
  • families with curious children
  • anyone who loves inventions and experiments
  • young artists and engineers

How to prepare

  • comfortable clothes
  • a readiness to touch, start and experiment
  • curiosity and questions
  • Children love this quest in particular because here they can do what museums usually forbid — touch the exhibits. Parents get drawn in too: together with the children they decode the riddles, start the mechanisms and try being apprentices to the great master. Because every great discovery begins with a simple question: “Why?”
  • Museum entrance tickets are paid separately.
