Making the hidden visible and making pencils float

Magnetism is one of the few physical phenomena that people cannot perceive with their senses. Yet the invisible forces between magnetic materials still fascinate people today.

Together with our guests, we’ll make pencils levitate and, in the ‘Magnetic and Optical Systems’ section, demonstrate a measuring system that can make magnetic fields – such as those on credit cards – visible in real time, thereby expanding your senses.

Also: Stamp rally in Göschwitz

If you visit at least 5 of the 14 participating institutes and companies and collect a stamp from each one, you’ll receive a small gift at the end of the discovery tour – including from us!

Please note:

• Participation is voluntary and free of charge.
• The small gift is only available on 20 November 2026 upon presentation of the stamp card with at least 5 stamps (whilst stocks last).
• No cash alternative available.

We’re putting Göschwitz in the spotlight!
