The highlight of this museum was definitely the blackboard used by Albert Einstein to explain the theory of relativity on a visit in Oxford. Fascinating instruments on display all over the museum. More

Lots of cool microscopes and old scientific gadgets. Great for your inner geek. More

Lovely little museum in an old building --plenty of stairs! The collections are excellent and very interesting. But as my 11 year old son said --the Einstein blackboard is AWESOME. More

Very interesting museum. From microscopes to the oldest photo cameras... It also has the board that Alberd Einstein draw when he visit Oxford. The entry to the museum is free. In case you go for a daily tour to Oxford, have in mind that the museum opens at 14:00 to 17:00. More

This is a fun place to run through in three-quarters of an hour. It's got some dandy gizmos from science past, and some intriguing stuff, esp in the special time exhibit that's on as of April 2012. Definitely something you should see when you're at the Bodleian and in the part of town. More

I took friends to this museum as one of them is a science teacher. There are plenty of exhibits, including items relating to astronomy, navigation, surveying and medicine on three floors(lots of stairs and a few uneven floors). My personal favourite were the 18th and 19thCentury models made to demostrate scientific principles. Unfortunately there are no explanation boards or sheets,... More

From Einstein's blackboard outlining his mathematical notes on cosmic expansion, to Florey's lab equipment, and Mosley's notes on the Periodic table, to original Marconi equipment. Superb. Also worth visiting is the Time Machine exhibition documenting early attempts at astronomical timekeeping to present-day research into high-speed attoseconds. The only drawback was the irresponsible parents who couldn't control their disinterested children and... More

Overwhelmed at the choice of museums in this town, I selected the museum of science. The exhibit was Time machines, focussing on clocks, but the historic chemistry displays were awesome too.. and don’t miss Einstein’s famous chalk boards where he wrote E=MC2. I spent less than 1 hour and was pleased. Not very child friendly. Free entry, right across from... More

This is a place full of interesting artefacts: early science equipment, solar system models, truly anything and everything. I visited the museum three times so far and have found the displays interesting - I just don't think it's as captivating as the Pitt Rivers or the Ashmolean. It is worth a visit if you have the time, but make sure... More
