Do you maybe know what illusions are?

Illusions are a trick. They trick our brain and our senses into believing what we are seeing is the truth. Our brain gets tricked by illusions, usually by receiving too much detailed and different information at once so it shows us a different truth from the one that really appears on paper. Each brain works differently (to a degree) so every person perceives Illusions differently. Do you want to know how you will experience our illusions?

We are open every day from 9AM till 10PM. Pick the time that suits you best and explore the world of illusions.

Interesting and fun - We have older teenage boys and they were worried it might be for younger kids, but it was great fun for the whole family. Only took under an hour to go around but we could have spent longer in the puzzle zone (they were hungry). You get some great pictures. Staff were good fun too.

Great experience for adults and kids - Awesome experience at the “House of Illusions” - our nine-year-old absolutely loved it and insisted we went back the next day. Lots of fun displays and activities for adults and kids alike. We particularly liked the zero gravity bathroom - a staff member helpfully showed us how to take some cool pictures of us hanging from the “ceiling”. The space tunnel and the infinity room will also big hits in our family .

It's fun - My son and I visited this place and we simply had fun and a lot of laughs. Time passes by quickly and although some of the illlusions may be a bit outdated or need some freshing up, it remains a fun experience to do.

Interesting - Pleasant visit in the center of Ljubljana. Great fun for adults and children. Much the same attractions as museums with similar formats in other cities, but even if many are things already seen it always remains a nice experience.

a little bit disappointed - the building was smaller as expected… 45€ for an exhibition which is old fashioned and, for some experiences, not working. That was good but not worthy…
