The Alimentarium has been taking a global and independent view of many aspects of the human diet for over 30 years. Through its multidisciplinary approach, the Museum has established itself as a must-seen attraction for anyone interested in topics related to food and nutrition. As the world’s first food-themed museum, it combines discovery, experimentation and learning.
As the centrepiece of the Museum, the new permanent exhibition “Food – The essence of life” invites children and adults alike to take a fresh look at an activity steeped in history and laden with emotional significance: eating. The unique new scenography, combining discovery, experimentation and learning, invites visitors on a fun-filled, interactive journey through three new sectors: Food, Society and The Body. Enlivened with projections, interactive terminals and video installations, this immersive experience will make visitors aware of the influence diet can have on the body and its environment.
As a place of learning and exchange, the Food Museum cooks up a daily menu of activities linked with food and nutrition. The new Food Academy area will engage the public with cookery and nutrition workshops lead by chefs six days a week. In the evening, it will become a platform for information exchange where professionals can discuss more in-depth topics such as nutrition, food allergies and balanced diet.
