The museum was established in partnership with MED-EL, a global leader in hearing implant technology.
Many exhibits are designed to show how synthetic hearing aids and implants interface with the human auditory nerve.
The space frequently hosts exhibitions that combine modern art installations with scientific acoustics.
The facility is designed as a 'ScienceCenter,' focusing on tactile and sensory learning rather than static viewing.
AUDIOVERSUM is an interactive science center in Innsbruck dedicated to the mechanics and wonders of human hearing. The museum uses high-tech installations and media art to demonstrate how the ear processes sound and how the brain interprets acoustic signals. Visitors explore the physiology of the inner ear through walk-in anatomical models and interactive exhibits. The center focuses on the interplay between technology and biology, including the role of medical hearing implants. Rotating exhibitions frequently merge scientific research with contemporary artistic expressions. It is a highly specialized facility that serves both educational purposes and as a hub for acoustic awareness.
The large-scale anatomical model of the human ear, which provides a unique perspective on human biology.
Interact with every exhibit, as the center is designed specifically for hands-on sensory exploration.
Check the website for current temporary exhibitions, as the science-art collaborations change periodically.
Do not treat it as a silent museum; it is a laboratory-style environment where noise and interaction are encouraged.
Closed on Mondays.
