About
Museum World of Illusion provides great fun and fascinating study for adolescents and adults thanks to optical illusions, paradoxes and phenomena that contradict the laws of physics. On your way you will find over 100 attractions such as: the Vortex Tunnel which will mess with your sense of balance, the Mirror Room that changes the definition of infinity, holograms that create 3D images, the Ames Room which will allow you to become a ‘giant’ and many other attractions. Visiting us at Rynek 21 in the Old Town in Warsaw, you will take a part in a surprising, fun journey. It will allow you not only to broaden horizons of perceiving reality, but will also provide knowledge that remains a mystery to many people. Don’t forget to bring your phone! In our extraordinary space you will have a chance to take photos that can't be done anywhere else! The Museum World of Illusion wishes you a lot of fun.

Quirky museum but fun and well worth a look. Not the biggest place in the world but enough to while away an hour and a lot of interesting things to see and try out.......optical illusions, tricks of the mind and lightning displays, etc etc.....

Disappointing
Friends
It was dirty and the air in the museum was horrible, that was the first thing that threw us off.
We went there thinking there would be way more installations with e.g. lights and stuff, It looked so good on the photos and website. We went inside and 70% were optical illusions taken from google or something, and the rest was not as spectacular as we imagined it to be. We finished walking through the museum after 20 mins and the price was wayyyy to high for what we experienced...
It was also way too packed, there was a whole school class in there and in my opinion it was irresponsible to keep letting people in, especially with the covid situation getting worse again

It’s a cool experience and good opportunity to get some cool photos. I think kids would enjoy the cool little illusions inside. Although it is quite a small and probably would only be a 20 minute experience at max

Too expansive for too little museum
Family
Entry costs 64 PLN for two adults, which is quite pricey for only about 30 minutes of museum.

Furthermore, if you've ever seen such before, you've seen it all. Nothing new / special here.

Fun place, great hosts, visit!
We were greeted at the ticket desk by a lovely enthusiastic and friendly young woman, who showed us the first exhibit and took photos of me and my son for us, we immediately felt that we were welcome and really felt special, something I have never experienced before in any museum. The exhibits were interactive and fun, we really enjoyed it and have some fun photos to prove it. I would highly recommend this place for a young family, and together with the warm and friendly staff we encountered,it was a great experience. I hope it is a huge success.

Fun for a quick stop
Family
Certainly don’t need much time. 45 min maybe. Quick pitstop for family fun photos. No need for more time
