Museum for Mathematics, Garden of Archimedes
In the enchanting Palazzo San Giorgio, one of the oldest and most evocative buildings of the 13th century, is the renovated Museum for Mathematics, previously housed in the Palazzo Gallio di San Martino.
Here, in the heart of Priverno, you can partake of an extraordinary experience..
This particular museum, conceived and curated with passion by the Fondazione il Giardino di Archimede in Florence, is a fascinating and unique place, entirely dedicated to the captivating world of mathematics and to its applications in everyday life.
The exhibition will guide you through the discovery of the extent to which mathematics is alive, concrete and surprising, even in its most abstract form. We will show you a myriad of relationships, some of which may surprise you, relating to your everyday life. We will unveil to you the "mysteries" of modern mathematics through a series of interactive tools, such as touch screens, monitors with keypads, mechanical and electronic equipment, and devices that will allow you to interact directly with the world of science. You will also be able to download texts, trivia and mathematical games to deepen your knowledge.
We invite you to get hands-on, play and have fun with the scientific tools at your disposal, with the aim of arousing in you an insatiable curiosity for the world of mathematics.
