Get tickets to the ARTIS-Micropia, the only museum on microbes in the heart of Amsterdam. Discover the most powerful life on earth and learn about the fascinating and invisible world of microbes.

PRICE: $20
per person

 

ARTIS-Micropia is the first and only museum entirely dedicated to microbes. They’re everywhere: in the air, in your gut, on your skin. They make food taste better, keep you healthy, and maintain balance in nature. Microbes are essential!

But this invisible life can only be seen through a microscope. The new exhibition MAGNIFIED – developed in collaboration with Nikon – reveals how microscopes have continuously expanded our view. From the very first lenses to today’s razor-sharp images. Discover how science, technology, and wonder come together in visuals, film, games, and stories.

Step into a world that has always surrounded you – but one you’ve never truly seen until now.

Want to discover even more? With a combination ticket, you can also visit the ARTIS-Groote Museum, where you’ll explore the profound connections between humans, animals, plants, and microbes. Or head outdoors to ARTIS-Zoo, where nature comes closer than ever before.
