About

One of India's oldest technology museums, opened in 1965 and named after engineer-statesman Sir M. Visvesvaraya, features interactive science and engineering exhibits spread across multiple themed galleries. Highlights include a motion simulator, robotics gallery and a hall dedicated to the history of engines and machinery. It was established under the National Council of Science Museums and remains a major draw for school groups across Karnataka. Regular science shows and a 3D theatre add to its appeal for younger visitors.
