An unexpected find!
An unexpected find while on a long weekend in Stockholm. If you prefer your museums to be interactive, this is for you! So much fun. The mind literally blows my mind! It was a Monday morning when we visited, so not too crowded. We took our time exploring it all, and we’re probably there for 90 mins.

Worth the visit
This is a fun place to get some silly photos and see some optical illusions. It would be ideal for groups of people. Many of the photos require two people to set up and a third to take the photo (although they have staff who help guests take photos). The was a highlight of our trip to Stockholm for my 12-year-old. We did not buy tickets in advance and didn't have issues, however it was quite busy even though we arrived after 7pm.

Great for teens
We spent a fun couple of hours here with our teenage boys. Plenty to see and do - very interactive and lots of things to blow your mind!

Good fun
Quite hard to find as underground by a entrance to the metro. Plenty of exhibits based on optical illusions which are good fun. Not a large museum so an hour and a half is plenty and whilst fun after a while the exhibits lost their impact. Still worth a visit though.

Great Place to Visit in Stockholm
A really fun and interesting place to visit, great for adults and kids. One or two of the exhibits really baffle your brain!

A little different - a lot of fun
On our annual Mother -Daughter trip (young adult daughter) , we included this experience since we are familiar with a number of immersive/interactive museums(activities) . This is a good one since it focuses on various types of perceptual illusions beyond the usual selfie venues. It's fun and imaginative, spend about 1 hr 1/1/2 , in a busy part of town. There are some shots that require a third person - and although they say staff will be there to assist - there are not enough so it sometimes requires the kindness of strangers All in all - it was fun and worth the time, but without any identifying Stockholm reference

A fun hour and a half
We enjoyed this place, which is quite hands-on and immersive. The staff managed the through-flow well so it wasn’t crowded and the other visitors were friendly and clearly having a good time. I liked the tunnel and the upside down room best, and the sofa was hilarious.

Detta va kul!
Roligt ställe, där en stor del av grejen ör att man tar foto som man sen kan kolla på och skratta åt i efterhand. För dyrt för hur litet det är men jag ångrar inte besöket, detta är något helt annorlunda mot andra museum! Se till att vara där tidigt, för det bildas snabbt köer, och då kan det kännas stressigt. Det bygger på att man går in i olika utrymmen, tar ett foto och går vidare, alla gör samma, men det finns också grejer att kolla på. Bra att veta är att det finns toaletter där inne. Det finns också endast ett rum med blinkande lampor (som det varnas för & där vi ljuskänsliga kan skippa). Vi gick i princip först och va där inne i 30 min. Ligger centralt.

Kul ställe men galet med folk
Jo då det va ett kul ställe med massor av roliga saker, men inte en lördag då det va massor med folk och köer överallt. Det förstörde en del tyvärr

Hygge mellem store og små. Relativ hurtigt overstået - tager Ca en time
et ganske hyggeligt museum, men det er dyrt i forhold til hvor lille det er. Flere sjove oplevelser. Jeg havde måske for høje forventninger, men var en smule skuffet da vi var færdige. Der er god styring af antallet af gæster som gør at man kan nå at se ting uden at man står meget oveni hinanden - og det kan være det er grunden til at det er relativt dyrt 🤷♀️ Det er en god oplevelse for store og små og man hygger sig sammen på tværs af alder ❤️

Fantastiskt
Gå dit. Låt din hjärna spela dig ett spratt. Underbar personal, roliga o hjälpsamma Spännande o skrämmande upplevelse.

Spännande och annorlunda.
Roligt för den som gillar att utforska och få nya perspektiv. Våra barn såg reklamen och hade verkligen önskat sig att få gå dit. Bra att komma ihåg att boka biljetter i förväg. Många tider blir slutsålda. Då kan det ändå bli lite trångt, och köer vid de populära rummen. Trevligt att personalen gärna hjälper till att ta bilder. Lätt att hitta till, precis vid utgången från Hötorgets tunnelbana.

Musée original pour tous et toutes
Musée très drôle pour petits et grands. Pensez à pouvoir prendre des photos sinon il a moins d'intérêt. Pensez à réserver comme tous les musées à Stockholm.

Super sympa mais petit
À faire car c’est hyper original et drôle ! Le musée est petit, en 3/4 h c’est fini ! Dommage le personnel n’explique rien à l’intérieur et n’aide pas à faire les photos alors que c’est le principe du musée. A noter de nombreuses choses cassées donc hors d’usage, dommage. Mais honnêtement on passe un super moment ! Et le rendu des mises en scène est top !

Verrassend leuk voor jong en oud
Samen met een vriendin op citytrip.... dat vraagt een bezoek aan het Paradoxmuseum. Niet goed wetende wat te verwachten, gingen we er naartoe. En het was een meevaller... leuk, interactief, zowel voor jong als oud. Sommige opstellingen zijn voorzien om foto's te nemen en daar moet je soms even wachten. Het resultaat is echter wel leuk en zorgt voor een leuk aandenken.

Grappig kunstmuseum
Leuk museum, allerlei grappige kunst die ook knap in elkaar zit. Het museum heeft verder behulpzaam personeel en overal de perfecte fotoplek al je op de grond geplakt.

Toll
Fand ich im gross und ganzen ein tolles Museum, würde es auch weiterempfehlen. Aber ich finde es hat zu viele Mensche, bei den grössereb und cooleren Dingen musste man anstehen und wenn man dran war wurde man beobachter, dass fand ich weniger cool.

Très bien fait et ludique
Ce site est très bien organisé : pédagogique, ludique et très visuel. Permet d'appréhender simplement les effets visuels qui trompent notre cerveau : ce musée est aussi inattendu (on ne savait pas qu'il existait avant notre visite touristique de Stockholm) qu'une bonne surprise pour toute la famille
