The DaVinci Machines Exhibition

The Davinci Machines Exhibition contains highlights of DaVinci and Michelangelo's greatest work. Hand-crafted inventions built from Leonardo's 500 year old designsbrought to life the creations and concepts devised by the brilliant scientist, inventor and artist Leonardo DaVinci.

DaVinci Magnificent Machines on display, many of which are interactive, the collection features replicas of the major and most striking inventions of the original Renaissance Man. The main features on display include the "bicycle", "spring powered car", "hang glider" and the "air screw", a precursor to the helicopter and for the first time ever, the secrets behind Leonardo's legendary robotic lion.

This exhibition presents over sixty models grouped in themes: War machines, Flying machines, Nautical & Hydraulic machines as well as devices illustrating the Principles of Mechanics. The interactive machines are a popular aspect of each exhibition as visitors can touch and handle these models to gain a first-hand appreciation of how they work. Explanatory notes and illustrative panels with Leonardo's drawings accompany each model.
