The Technorama in Winterthur is a science centre. Here you may touch everything and experiment yourself, for example with light, magnets or water. In other museums you can usually only look at the exhibits, for example in the Reinhart Collection «Am Römerholz» or in the Fotomuseum, which are also in Winterthur.
