With a presence in more than 18 countries around the world, this original museum has one of its headquarters in Madrid. Located between Lavapiés and the Puerta del Sol, the Museum of Illusions is a space for both social and entertaining tours that enter the world of optical illusions and will delight audiences of all ages.
The Museum of Illusions is divided into several rooms in which the visitor can live different visual, experimental and educational experiences where nothing is what it seems. These rooms include the Room of Ames, the Leaning Room, the Infinite Room, the Anti-Gravity Room and the Vortex Tunnel. It also has the Intelligent Games Room, where you can train your brain with various games.
In October 2023, the museum unveiled several new rooms, games and installations, such as the Symmetry Room, which although it looks like a whole room, in actual fact only half is visible; new deceptive spaces like Open Your Mind, where the exhibition uses the symmetrical properties of font (typography) so that only half of the words are written; or the Moiré effect.
Through holograms, tricks and games the public will learn new things about vision, perception, the human brain and science, being able to understand that sometimes the eyes see things that the brain cannot understand.
The museum also has a shop where you can find more than 80 dilemma games, wooden puzzles, construction and educational games and all kinds of souvenirs.
