Science Center
The Phæno Science Center is an interactive science center in Wolfsburg, Germany, completed in 2005. Phæno arose from urban planning by the City of Wolfsburg. In 1998 City officials were developing a plot of vacant, public land immediately adjacent to Wolfsburg's railway station and just south of VW's huge, then-unfinished attraction Autostadt. An art museum was planned for the site, but Dr. Wolfgang Guthardt, then the City's Director for Culture, Sports and Education, knew that such an institution would compete with Wolfsburg's successful Kunst Museum (Art Museum) and needed other options.

Sightseeing
The Wolfsburg is medieval lowland and water castle in North Germany that was first mentioned in the records in 1302, but has since been turned into a Renaissance schloss or palace. It is located in eastern Lower Saxony in the town of Wolfsburg named after it and in whose possession it has been since 1961. The Wolfsburg developed from a tower house on the River Aller into a water castle with the character of a fortification. In the 17th century it was turned into a representative, but nevertheless defensible palace that was the northernmost example of the Weser Renaissance style. Its founder and builder was the noble family of von Bartensleben. After their line died out in 1742 the Wolfsburg was inherited by the counts of Schulenburg.

Planetarium
STAR GAZING IN WOLFSBURG AND THE SURROUNDING AREA
The Wolfsburg Planetarium has the biggest star dome of Lower Saxony. Visitors primarily know it for its hauntingly beautiful starry sky. The planetarium conveys astronomical knowledge in a vivid and entertaining way. Ever since the opening in 1983, people and technology make sure of it with continually increasing standards. After installing a star projector in 1996 – still considered state of the art – and the installation of a digital video system at the turn of 2009/2010, countless new possibilities in terms of illustrating scientific concepts have come up.
“Watch, marvel, learn in 360 degrees” is the planetarium’s motto. The planetarium program includes didactically valuable live events for schools, Kosmos knowledge shows for children and adults, as well as music shows.
In June 2012, the space laboratory was added as another attraction in the planetarium with the support of the Wolfsburg AG.
The space laboratory has two main purposes: it helps visitors shorten the waiting time before planetarium program starts, and lets them expand their knowledge after the event.
