Continium Discovery Center Reviews

Great place for discovery even for the "big" child in us

plenty to do to keep you entertained for a day, lots of useful info and a live show. Much emphasis on doing and discovering for children. as a change, a visit to Columbus and Cube is recommended

A fun, informative and interactive "do" museum for young and old. Well worth it. In the brasserie, the food is fine (some of the price). Good for a full day of fun.

Little informative rather something for the kids or little kids

There is something to see for a few hours and especially good for children

Nice for the younger siblings to make discoveries in rainy weather

Top top. This is a museum where even suite adults can marvel. Sparkling wine interactive and modern. Restaurant cheap and varied. Very modern design and art elements decorated. There is also an experimented lab here. Where I did a lot myself. The kids were totally excited. The staff is very friendly and specialize in children.

Fun and educational museum. Film about the Earth was very interesting. Staff member Marion was very friendly and attentive. Recommended, also fun for the children.

Very nice museum. Highly recommended with children.

A very nice place to bring the kids to. There are basically 2 parts.

The first part is a normal kind of discovery center with a lot of interactive science and technology exhibitions. The kids really love it, as there's a lot to do. The great thing is that they even learn from it.

The second part is even better for the kids: World of bricks. Basically some tiny Lego land, where kids can do a lot with Lego.

Finally there are some hand on labs, where for a small fee, kids can build some small tech construction. We didn't go for it, as we were running out of time.

Fun, interesting, educational and all through a lot of interaction.

Really fun experiments for the kids, but also fascinating for adults. I would definitely recommend it!

Perfect .
My kids and I are excited. We will be back .

A very nice museum for children, there is so much great to do

Had a wonderful day with grandchildren of 8 and 10 years old. Very educational. Lovely staff, helpful. Also for the elderly, the mine, a reminder of our time.
Fortunately, our grandchildren need these
To stop performing underpaid and dangerous workloads.

Very nice for children. They now also have a small LEGO / Duplo section. There is much to see and discover about, among other things, the human body. Bit like Nemo but smaller.

Great fun for the kids, but also educational for the adult. Good restaurant and good food.

Very nice museum. Enough for the children and friendly staff. Also very nice show. Horeca also fine.

Relive old times. This is a museum with many objects from old times.
Also shows the advancement of technology and the time of the mining industry.
And the life of that time.

Super fun interactive and educational museum. Ideal for families with children. Next to the museum there is a laboratory where children can really make something fun. And a 3d movie, these options are at extra cost. Covid measures are the best I've seen. There is really a lot of cleaning, and everywhere there are disinfection options.

Bear in mind that there's a very heavy over-sell on the website; I was really disappointed with what's actually inside - though to be fair, it's probably aimed at young children under 10 (I'm well over that...)

If you have a "museumkaart" and you have free entry, or if you have kids under 10 then it's OK. Kids over 10 are likely to get bored; if you're paying the full 13.50 adult price it's not really worth it.

The staff are friendly and conversational and have time for their visitors.

I found the layout to be chaotic and I had the feeling that I was missing out on a section. Hang onto your young children because I think they'd get lost pretty easily without a parent's hand to hang on to.

There's a large (free) carpark nearby, and a train station too if you prefer travel by train. I didn't notice any landing strips if you plan on coming by space shuttle...!

Super nice children's party of Professor "Strooi" what did this lady do super fun .. All children very interested listened for an hour .. We enjoyed .. Then free tour ... Food well arranged afterwards and tasty ...

Top museum for the kids. It is a pity that a few things did not work (properly). Nevertheless superb.

A perfect place for children and adults lots of science information

Great place for children to do and discover everything

Great museum. Especially the temporary crime scene exhibition! As far as I'm concerned, the science part is too much of an issue. Because of this very shallow and little draft.

Very nice for children (but also for adults), lots of activities, looks very nice and also educational. Highly recommended, you will be there all afternoon long.

A nice museum in itself, but too many things didn't work or didn't work well.

Perfect for a trip with children.
Good cake in the restaurant below.

Lots to see and do. Ideal for young curious children

I did not like that at the bus stop have not made a cove. But they could have put more banks.

Interesting and fun place for kids. Lack of English explanation to make it a great experience for non dutch speaker.

Super educational and fun too. As an extra also included the presentation of LEGO.

Outstanding museum for children with workshop and various model kits to build yourself. consistently friendly staff. many museum contents such as mining history is offered here but not forced. A lot to touch. From the architecture very nice building. From the basic concept similar to the Maus Museum in Cologne but simply much better. I always like to come back.

Fun and educational museum, friendly staff. Well worth it!

Very nice destination in the region, especially in the cold season.

Lovely play and learning museum, also interesting for adults. Tip: get the children to tinker in the lab.
PS: skip 'design museum' Cube, a waste of effort

Interactive and with many activities aimed at children. The children can have a great time here in a fun and playful way. Tinker yourself, test things yourself and a panorama cinema and show that are presented in a fun way with all kinds of tests. A must for a nice afternoon!

Very interesting and informative .Children should be able to read.

Great museum for kids aged 2+, lots to do and discover.

Our 3 year old son was thrilled. What a great LEGO exhibition. Also nice that attention is paid to the history of LEGO. The employees are very friendly and helpful. The Brasserie in the building is also very good. Limburg pie with coffee for 4.50.

There is a lot on offer, but find the admission price overpriced. Children from 5 years pay the full price of 12 euros, here you could set a lower price. Otherwise fun for young and old. Can spend a few hours here. Very friendly staff.

Great interactive, interesting and very child-friendly museum. The CSI is great for children over 10. Are you happy with it for a few hours. And not a nuisance for a moment.

Super interesting museum for young and older children and for adults. A day flies by.

Great place to visit, but very much towards kids audience. Most explanations are in Dutch, no English translations.

Great fun for the whole family. The brasserie, on the other hand, is poor. Orders are not properly executed and staff cannot speak decent Dutch.

A real 'do museum'. Very nice to go with children from +/- 4 to 12 years old. Experiencing children can learn a lot about technology here.

It's very interesting, I recommend it. It's so kid friendly

The Continium consists of 4 parts: A static, real museum part with old objects from South Limburg. A part about the human body, inventions (science). A temporary exhibition. Until December 7, 2016 about mobile phones and how it came about, from December 21 a large Lego exhibition. But the best thing for the kids: do it yourself. You can make various devices with recycle or new materials.
The present restaurant is not extensive but tasty. This part is shared with design museum Cube and 3D cinema Columbus.
Museum year card are valid, otherwise it is quite pricey. Because tinkering also costs extra money.

Fun for children. Lots to do and see. The Lego piece is also very nice. Reminded us all a bit of Nemo in Amsterdam, but a lot less busy, so that the children could actually do everything.

For children this is a very fun and educational museum, they can discover a lot, and also do a lot of things themselves.

Great fun for young and old. Too bad that a number of attractions were broken.

Great for children, parents and grandparents. Everyone will enjoy doing and learning.

Nice and interesting location! Lots of fun things to do. The Workshops are also a lot of fun!

It is a rather odd museum. The mining section didn't make sense for me compared to the rest

Super fun museum for children. Very interactive. Children can do and discover a lot themselves. Ideal to lose some energy.
The adults also had a great time!

What an incredibly nice location. Been with the family of which 2 boys aged 8 and 9. They had a great time.

Nice museum, great fun for kids with many things to learn and discover.

Great place, severely undervalued, very educational for young and old!
