Teylers, Are You Sure?

Why This Exhibition Matters in Haarlem

Science and curiosity go hand in hand. In Haarlem, with its rich history and cultural scene, Teylers Museum offers a unique opportunity to explore this connection. The exhibition 'Are You Sure?' challenges us to think about how we acquire knowledge and what we consider truth. It's a chance not only to learn but also to question our own assumptions.

What to Expect

From October 2, you can visit the exhibition 'Are You Sure?' at Teylers Museum. This exhibition introduces you to five fundamental principles of science: Evidence, Repetition, Adjustment, Testing, and Building. Surprising historical and contemporary examples bring these principles to life. Think of the discovery of the black swan, which teaches us that scientific truths sometimes need to be revised.

Interactivity is central to this exhibition. You can conduct experiments yourself, like testing if you are stronger than air pressure. This makes science accessible and fun, inviting creative thinking and questioning. From books and models to videos and instruments, there’s plenty to discover.
