AUDIOVERSUM is the interactive museum in Innsbruck all about the captivating worlds of listening and wondering. As a ScienceCenter it fascinates visitors from across Austria and beyond with its combination of medicine, technology, education and art and is therefore unique in Europe. The main exhibition “Adventure Hearing”, with its multimedia installations invites visitors to join in and sharpen their senses: by navigating through the ear in 3D, by acoustically hunting invisible birds and by touching oversized sensory cells, visitors explore the manifold functions of hearing. The initiator of the only ScienceCenter in Tyrol is MED-EL, the world's leading supplier of implantable hearing systems. The exhibition concept is extended with regularly changing special exhibitions. Thus, a visit to the Audioversum is always a new experience.

A 400-year old bell foundry and museum of bell-making.
Reviewed By Soccca - Tolmin, Slovenia
After seeing lots of “usual” museums (not only those in Innsbruck) this bell museum was really something extraordinary. We had the Innsbruck Card which covered also this museum, so we didn’t have to pay the admission fee. We walked around museum on our own. There is a short video presentation about making bells and after that you can try some tests about the sounds of different bells. A small, but a wonderful museum!

The Swarovski store had an exhibition as well during the time of our visit. There were some beautiful exhibits on show. It is worth buying at least one jewellery piece from the store, if not more. These make ideal gifts as well considering that you will get something unique and an original! You can claim tax waiver for your purchase. Please do collect the forms so that same can be presented at the departing airport (europe) for tax refund.
