EX MACHINA

Leonardo da Vinci's machines between science and art

3rd May until 1st December 2019

On the occasion of the 500th anniversary of Leonardo da Vinci’s death on the 2nd May, 1519, the Museum of the University of Tübingen will present an extensive and surprisingly orchestrated exhibition with more than 50 replicas of machine designs by the universal genie in the Hohentübingen Castle. Unlike any other, Leonardo connected the knowledge of the art, science and technology era – the way it is mirrored in the large, universal collection of the University of Tübingen.
