Micropia is a big museum about a very tiny subject. Located in central Amsterdam, Micropia focuses its exhibits on the study and display of information about microbes. Often referred to as a “zoo,” Micropia’s inhabitants feature rare and common bacteria and microbes, some of which live on human beings. Visitors can learn about different types of bacteria, view the designs they naturally create, and even scan themselves to see what types of microbes are growing on them! The microbiology lab at Micropia is home to many knowledgeable scientists who are available to answer any questions for visitors.
