SOWA

The SOWA Zone of Discovery, Imagination and Activity is an initiative of the Minister of Education and Science, implemented as part of the Social Responsibility of Science programme. Its goal is to popularize science and scientific research through learning based on independent experimentation and discovery. In the zone, visitors can interact with exhibits, solve construction and logic puzzles, and participate in workshops and classes based on the educational solutions of the Copernicus Science Centre.

SOWA is located on the third floor of the Centre for the Tradition of Metallurgy building at 3 Maja Avenue 6 in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski.
