About the exhibition
"Mathematics at your fingertips" - since 1995, exhibitions have been organized under this title, in which interested people can experience mathematical phenomena directly and thus gain a new approach to Mathematics. The Mathematikum provides visitors with interactive exhibits. Those interested conduct experiments and explore mathematics phenomena on their own. In this way, they can understand Mathematics with their hands, heads and hearts.

The experiments are suitable for interested people of all ages and backgrounds: they lay puzzles, build bridges, rack their brains in puzzle games, discover the golden section on themselves, watch a ball race, stand in a giant soap skin and much more. The exhibition does not choose the path of abstract mathematical language or computer simulations, but rather trial and error. However, it is also a full benefit for real math freaks.

The exhibition originated at the University of Giessen from work with students and has become a sought-after traveling exhibition. In over 500 exhibitions to date, more than 1.5 million visitors have been inspired by this approach to Mathematics.
