OBEX is the destination for high-quality immersive experiences in Germany and will be presenting a large selection of diverse exhibitions over the coming years. Join us on a journey through fascinating (virtual) worlds and let yourself be carried away in a unique interplay of images, sound and light that feels as real as if you were part of the exhibition.

Immerse yourself in ancient Pompeii - more realistically than ever before! The award-winning exhibition “The Last Days of Pompeii” takes you on a 90-minute journey back in time to the year 79 AD - just before the devastating eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

Experience the vibrant life of the Roman city: stroll through market squares, explore noble villas, experience gladiator fights - until the volcano changes the city forever. Thanks to state-of-the-art VR technology, interactive stations and impressive 360° projections, the past becomes close enough to touch.

A special highlight: a visit to the legendary Villa of Mysteries in the Metaversum - a fascinating tour through magnificent halls and gardens. The experience is complemented by faithful replicas, artifacts and in-depth background information curated by leading historians. A specially composed orchestral soundtrack intensifies the emotional impact of the production.
