Aberdeen Science Centre has recruited global exhibition experts as it gets ready to reopen after a £4.7 million redevelopment.
The attraction is preparing to return to a revamped Tramsheds on Constitution Street after moving to a temporary base on George Street in 2018.
Having been totally redeveloped, the centre will house more than 60 new interactive exhibits when it reopens later in the autumn.
They have been designed and manufactured by specialists Huttinger Interactive Exhibitions, one of the leading experts in the field.
Based in Nuremberg, Germany, Huttinger has produced exhibits for museums, science centres, visitor centres and themed attractions across the world.
The exhibits, which are designed to appeal to visitors of all ages, will be themed into six new zones: energy, space, life sciences, “make it, test it”, and a special area for children under six.
Chief executive of the centre, Bryan Snelling said: “Huttinger is renowed for the creativity and innovation of its exhibits, and their work features in some of the world’s top museums and science centres.
“We are delighted they are working with us to help create a top visitor attraction not just for Aberdeen, but across north-east Scotland and beyond.”
Managing director of Huttinger Interactive Exhibitions, Axel Huttinger, said they were “proud and honoured” to have been chosen to work on the project.
The redevelopment at the Tramsheds includes a new mezzanine floor extension – almost doubling the exhibition space.
