From June 1 to 6, the Exhibitions will be closed. From June 2 to 5, the Planetarium will also be closed. We are hosting the international ECSITE conference, gathering 1,000 science communicators, during this time.

Looking for an idea for an extraordinary Friday afternoon? Visit Copernicus! We are open until 8:00 PM.

On this day, some attractions will not be available to visitors, and Copernicus will close earlier than usual, at 6:00 PM. We apologize for the inconvenience. The restrictions are related to preparations for the Przewroty Award gala.

One a month, between 1 and 6 PM there will be „Quiet hours” at the Copernicus. During this time, we turn off noisy exhibits, harsh light emitting devices and strobe lights, and we present a quieter show in the High Voltage Theatre. 

Our building has stood in Warsaw’s Powiśle district for nearly 14 years. A lot has changed since 2010. The youngest children, who were the first to play at the “Buzzz!” exhibition, are already high school students. The first RoboThespian, the miracle of modern robotics greeting our guests, became a nice, elderly man and gave way to modern humanoids. Now, we are getting ready for yet another change.

Check our opening hours in July and August.

We kindly inform you that on May 24th, some attractions will be unavailable for visitors: the exhibition “The Future is Today”, the Robotic Theater, and the “Air fountain” exhibit. Additionally, the corridor connecting the Exhibitions and the Planetarium will be closed, so we ask those attending a show to walk around the building.

The Copernicus Science Centre has been recognized by „Rzeczpospolita” as one of the 15 best Polish investments of the past two decades, realized with co-financing from European funds. The awards were given to local governments – municipal, city, county, and provincial – in four categories: sustainable transport, green investments, culture and education, and society.
