MATHEMATICS: WONDERS AND SURPRISES



Dive into the fascinating world of mathematics! It is much more than just numbers and equations – discover its creative, surprising, and exciting side at the EULER DAYS at the Luxembourg Science Center.

Mathematics is often seen as abstract or too complex, yet it is all around us: in the architecture of great structures, in musical harmonies, in the patterns of nature, and even in the games we love. It’s not just about calculations and formulas – it’s a gateway to creativity, exploration, and discovery!

As part of the EULER DAYS, the Luxembourg Science Center invites you to a unique experience where logic and imagination come together. Get ready to explore mathematics in a whole new way – through experimenting, creating, and playing!

(Note: “EULER DAYS 2026” follows “PI DAYS 2025,” a weekend dedicated to mathematics in all its glory.)
