Very fun and cheap! Highly recommend going

Lots of fun and worth my money! Woman at the counter was super nice and the exhibitions were fun. Would have liked to have seen some more about the history of astronomy in Groningen but that's personal preference. Definitely recommend!

Very nice museum, with interesting exhibition. Just that exhibition is not in English, and the English guidebook always cannot match the orders of items there😹It could be more friendly!
Also pay attention to the signs of bathrooms, I almost went wrong because of graffiti...

small museum, interesting to see some of the university’s history, and the temporary collection with Ghent University was intriguing. for students of RuG, or under 18 the tickets are free too, so it is definitely worth the visit.

The museum is excellent, the reception staff extremely friendly and helpful.
I loved being part of a study about time and contributing to a psychology project at the University of Groningen, I found the study very interesting and hope to hear more results.
After the study we visited the museum upstairs and also found it interesting, organised and curious.
I recommend, don't miss this museum.

A very nice interactive exhibition called 'Time will tell' and an interesting small experimental Indonesian exhibition.

The interactive exhibition about time perception was extremely nice as well as the anatomy room

Pretty nice museum, i loved the 'Time will tell' exhibition a lot, there were some experiments around it in which we could participate and they were fun. It was cool to read about how our mind perceives time, and the experiments were a good way to learn more about my own time perception and reception.

There were multiple collections, the one focused on Indonesia was very nice. Then they had a collection of stories in the science domain, of leading Dutch scientists and Nobel prize winners. It is a very nice place to visit for students in my opinion.
