Ustanova Hiša eksperimentov
Ustanova Hiša eksperimentov (UHE) is a curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, and active engagement empowering centre - some call it also the Science Centre. The idea of establishing such a centre started in 1994. UHE was established as a nonprofit foundation in 1996. Our temporary exhibitions around Slovenia resulted in a permanent collection on the premises by the Ljubljana municipality. UHE attracts yearly around 25.000 visitors. UHE is the place where the enjoyment of learning, promoting science, and humor intertwine. Visitors can interact with over 60 “hands-on” exhibits with all developed, designed, and built-in UHE.

They can explore each exhibit containing a written explanation that unobtrusively invites them to immerse deeply into science while experimenting. A new exhibit is constantly checked in its usage, improves weak points, and enhances its attractiveness. The statement “Learning is fun” describes our primary mission – the promotion of enjoyment in learning. We believe that learning by experimenting and testing yourself is the right way to obtain new knowledge and increase the desire to acquire even more knowledge. UHE is taking part in building a Knowledge-based society, a society open to exchange ideas, whether scientific discoveries, innovations in the industry, or personal insight. It is a society of curious and open-minded people who are not afraid to admit to some ignorance and try to find the answers to their questions. The free exchange of ideas between individuals makes society richer.
