High-voltage demonstration

This impressive show at the Technisches Museum Wien (Vienna Museum of Science and Technology) takes you on a trip through the world of electrical charges and currents!
For everyone
Age 7+
Guide / Action
We generate current with extremely high voltage and conduct astonishing experiments: Light bulbs glow without a power cable and metre-long lightning bolts flash freely across our safety cage.

In addition, we explain why hair often stands on end when children go down a slide, what the so-called “war of the currents” was all about and many other interesting facts about electricity.

Tip: As it is quite dark and loud inside the high-voltage demonstration, participants should be at least 7 years old. Children under 8 years of age may only participate if accompanied by an adult.
Please note that, unfortunately, visitors with a pacemaker cannot attend the high-voltage demonstration.

Meeting point: High-voltage demonstration room, level 2
