MPL celebrates quantum sciences on the Day of Light

Experiments, quantum physics and curious minds: Together with the #DeutschesMuseumNürnberg, we celebrated the #DayOfLight and #IYQ2025 at Erlangen’s Hugenottenplatz and our institute.
 
A big thank you goes out to everyone who made the day possible – and of course to all those who visited us. Your curiosity and enthusiasm truly made the day special!
