Themes
Nobel Prizes that changed the world
In his will, Alfred Nobel wrote that the Nobel Prizes should go to those who have “conferred the greatest benefit to humankind.” What does it mean and how are the Nobel Prize laureates selected? In this guided tour, you will learn more about Alfred Nobel and how Nobel Prize laureates are chosen. We will also explore Nobel Prizes that have changed the world, and get to know the people behind them. Is there something that unites them?
Through highlights in our object collection in the exhibition These things changed the world, we get to know laureates and learn more about why they have been awarded the Nobel Prize. The objects tell stories of how the laureates’ discoveries provide insights and make life longer and safer, for you and for humankind.

Humanity – a journey through literature and peace
In this guided tour, we explore the remarkable aspects of being human. What is it that shapes an individual? And what does it mean to be human?
With Alfred Nobel’s own interest in literature and peace as our starting point, we let a number of Nobel Prize laureates guide us through the big questions. What does it mean to be human and humane? And where does human courage come from?
In our exhibition These Things Changed the World, we get to know the Nobel Prize laureates and explore the best and worst of what it means to be human.

Cosmos – a journey into physics
In this guided tour, we explore the very smallest within the very largest. Our address is called the Milky Way, but what do we actually know about it? And what truly lies beyond?
In the tour Cosmos, we venture out into the infinite. Starting from Alfred Nobel’s lifelong curiosity, we take a closer look at humanity’s sense of wonder before the unknown. We are guided through Nobel Prize–awarded insights into black holes and exoplanets. In our exhibition These things changed the world, we get to know the Nobel Prize laureates and challenge our thinking with the cosmic proportions that define the universe.

What is life? – a journey into chemistry and medicine
In this guided tour, we explore life from different perspectives. With Alfred Nobel’s life and legacy as our starting point, we take a closer look at Nobel Prize awarded discoveries in chemistry and medicine, and the people behind them.
We move between DNA spirals and gene-editing tools and ask ourselves whether a laureate really voluntarily drank a cocktail containing ulcer‑causing bacteria.
In the exhibition These things Change the World, you’ll get to know the Nobel Prize laureates and gain a deeper understanding of scientific breakthroughs and future challenges.
