    This is a FREE, fun, interactive learning space! So many topics, concepts and area to explore. It is obviously mostly in Danish, but there are small English translations throughout as well, so not all is lost! Toilets, free WiFi, a little shop, an area where you can swap clothes - bring some clothes to be able to take some. The info you can learn is relevant to every day life and is so interactive!! You could easily spend hours here. It is right across from the train station if you come by train. Very close to the walking street as well. For some reason it is having tantrums when I try to add photos... which is a shame because I took many!!!

    An amazing place that is free to visit. It has a good array of exhibits detailing sustainability and climate change and I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Toilets were clean too on site. The toilet simulator was the most unique item here. Recommended if you are visiting Vejle.

    really a great place to visit and it's free. rarely do you go into the basement and experience the bottom of the sea. then you move down into the sewer. you have the option to follow the water from the time you go to the toilet. a wild experience. you follow how we clean our waste water. learn about how much plastic pollutes the world. a wildly fascinating place.

    Durch Zufall sind wir auf die Ausstellung bzw das Museum gestoßen. Der Eintritt ist gratis und hier kann man sehr viel Zeit verbringen. Es ist allerdings auf Dänisch und Englisch. Dennoch unfassbar gut, mit so viel Liebe zum Detail, sehr nettem Personal und super für Kinder. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

    Fantastic place to enjoy fun time with friends and family, also to learn many things about the nature and environment. For example how to save energy and recycle organic and plastic waste. Great information for children and young people to learn how important to be aware about the current and future climate change problems. Recommend it to everyone living or visiting Vejle .

    A great place to learn about ecology! Conceived for kids but suitable for grown up too!! Videos, games, and quizzes! Being non Danish speakers, the only thing we missed was the translation of most of the content!

    This place is inspiring as a museum itself and should be put as an example how limited space can be utilised to the very maximum. Incredible ideas and top class level to express them. Big applause and congratulation to all contributors.

    Eine sehr schönes, kindgerechtes Museum über unsere Umwelt und das Ökosystem unserer Zeit. Der Eintritt ist kostenfrei, die Ausstellungstafeln und Sprachausgaben sind auf Dänisch und Englisch gehalten. Es gibt sehr viel im Økolariet zu entdecken, auch für Erwachsene wirklich spannend. Ausreichend Zeit mitbringen, es ist größer als es auf den ersten Blick scheint und es gibt viele Mitmach-Möglichkeiten.

    Very interesting exhibition on environmental issues, children friendly. Moreover, free entrance also for adults.

  • 5/5 Rute S. 7 months ago on Google
    We love it. Friendly staff and very well thought. Activities to aid children explore the museum are often changed. My little girl always wants to visit when we are in Vejle.

  • 5/5 Julia B. 11 months ago on Google
    Absolutely lovely museum, and entrance is free! Very interactive with something to interest everyone, young, elder, and in-between. Excellent integration of multiple intelligences, there are kinesthetic activities, storytelling (from a tree!), music, herb gardens, and so much more. It’s really a whole experience, with a simulation of being beneath the fjord, even a used toy exchange area and a cute gift shop 👌Traveling with a baby, I appreciated the seating options throughout the museum. My 3-year old enjoyed this more than Legoland, the deer park, and all of the other attractions of Denmark. He especially loves the watering cans where he could learn through playing with water. Thank you to the museum staff for this wonderful experience!

    Great service with a smile with relevant info. Perhaps best suited for small children. Not very captivating for older students. Not enough possilities for interaction.

    What an amazing place to teach children about the environment and impact of harmful use of plastics as well as learning about the body (effect of food). This museam is free in Velje and a great learning experience for children to learn about global warming.
