Did you know?

Gravity-defying Room: Illuseum Berlin features a room where visitors can experience the sensation of defying gravity. Despite being firmly grounded, you will feel as though you are tilting at impossible angles, making for an intriguing and disorienting experience.

Why visit Illuseum Berlin?

Mind-bending exhibits

The Illuseum Berlin is home to a variety of mind-bending exhibits designed to challenge your perceptions and stimulate your senses. From rooms that defy gravity to optical illusions that distort reality, each display offers a unique and immersive experience that will leave you questioning the nature of reality itself.

Highlights

The Ames Room

Experience the mind-bending illusion of the Ames Room, where objects appear to change size and shape depending on your perspective. This optical trickery is achieved through cleverly constructed walls and floors that create a distorted sense of depth.

Mirror Maze

In this room, you have to navigate your way through an intricate mirror maze, where reflections create an illusion of endless corridors and pathways. The mirrored surfaces play tricks on your senses, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and reflection.

Gravity Defying Room

In this room, despite standing on solid ground, you can experience a sensation of tilting and shifting, challenging your sense of balance and orientation. As you look around, you will see that gravity seems to have no hold in this room, with everyday objects seemingly floating or stuck in impossible angles.

Rotating Tunnel

As you enter the Rotating Tunnel, it gives you a sense of forward motion, without actually leading you anywhere. This effect is achieved due to the rotating walls of the room, which appear to propel you forward while keeping you static.

The Infinity Room

Step into the Infinity Room, where mirrors create an illusion of endless space stretching in all directions. This immersive experience plays with reflections and symmetry, giving you the sensation of being surrounded by an infinite array of identical images.

Upside Down Room

In this room, the situation is topsy-turvy, with furniture hanging from the ceiling and everyday objects appearing to deceive reality. Entering this room will challenge your sense of orientation, creating a surreal atmosphere.
