Museum of Senses Milano: Summer Quest 2026 Debuts with Sensory Illusions
Located in Milan's Porta Nuova district on Viale Monte Grappa, the Museum of Senses showcases interactive exhibits that stimulate all five senses. With locations in Prague, Madrid, and Bucharest, it provides unique experiences such as experiencing a bed of nails without pain and tasting apple candy that mimics the flavor of peach. The newly launched Summer Quest, a variant of the traditional Sense Quest, introduces temperature changes and queries related to sunlight. Visitors gather letters to unlock the quest. The museum's design fosters a delightful sense of disorientation, enhanced by light effects and geometric patterns. It focuses on educational and therapeutic initiatives, offering family-friendly activities and aiding research in rehabilitation and neurodegenerative conditions.
