What you can expect

Visit the world’s only microbe museum next to ARTIS Zoo. Only 10 minutes from city centre.
They are everywhere, in the air, on your skin and in your gut. They make food taste good, keep you healthy and maintain balance in nature. Microbes are essential.

At Micropia this invisible world comes to life through living microbes, microscopes, interactive displays and stories from the lab technicians.

Water Lab: What is hidden in a single drop of water?
In ARTIS-Micropia, there are three aquariums filled with water from a farm ditch, seawater, and water from the Amsterdam canals. At first glance, it looks like just water… but appearances are deceiving! What is crawling around in there? It teems with microbes. Look into the microscopes and let yourself be surprised by the hidden world in the water.

Want to discover more?

With a combination ticket you can also visit the ARTIS-Groote Museum, where you discover how everything is connected, human, animal, plant and microbe. Or step outside into ARTIS Zoo and experience nature up close.
