A calendar bearing traces of a journey through time, a letter from the world’s most renowned scientist, and a laundry detergent that has contributed to award-winning research — these are just three of over 240 objects featured in the exhibition These things changed the world. The exhibition offers a glimpse into groundbreaking discoveries and inspiring life’s work through personal items donated by Nobel Prize laureates to the museum’s collection.

Since 1901, the Nobel Prize has honoured pioneering discoveries, brilliant ideas, moving stories, and efforts for peace. Each has offered new perspectives on our lives and our future — and, in some way, changed the world.

Mingle with friends among the exhibits and join a guided tour as our knowledgeable guides present These things changed the world.
