Maths Week – National Wax Museum Plus

From the 11th to the 19th of October, Maths week celebrates mathematics and its importance in venues nationwide. At the National Wax Museum Plus, the Science and Discovery Zone pays tribute to all of Ireland’s greatest mathematicians and scientists, most of whom are under-appreciated for the major achievements and contributions they have made in many fields of Science and Mathematics.

The Science and Discovery Zone features famous mathematicians and scientists such as George Boole and Robert Boyle, but also plenty of other men and women that are perhaps less well known, but by no means less important in the contributions they have made to their fields. These great scientists and mathematicians are celebrated at the museum, with interactive displays to illustrate their achievements, improve your knowledge, and have a bit of fun at the same time.
