Discover Gonnet

In Manuel B. Gonnet, Mundo Nuevo offers a concrete point of interest for travelers interested in science outreach and playful learning. Its venue for public activities is located in the República de los Niños. This was conceived as a place for civic education for children and young people, combining this purpose with a playful, leisure-oriented character. Education and recreation are therefore both central to the idea.

Puppets in many forms from around the world

The Museo Internacional del Muñeco has more than 2,500 dolls, figures, hand puppets, and marionettes representing around 40 countries.

Science, art, and social issues

Mundo Nuevo offers multidisciplinary science outreach activities. Topics range from physics and biology to history, communication, and sociology, as well as literature, music, and theater. This allows visitors to choose their own point of entry based on their interests: some may be drawn to a scientific topic, while others may be more interested in social connections or artistic forms of expression. This thematic breadth is an essential part of its profile, and the program cannot be reduced to a single subject.

Sensorium offers a distinctive experience. This art-and-science experience is accessible to people with visual impairments. Its description brings together two areas that also characterize the range of Mundo Nuevo’s topics: art and science. When planning a trip, this explicitly stated accessibility is a helpful, specific detail for people with visual impairments; it applies to Sensorium and not, broadly, to all activities or venues.

The venue for public activities is located in the República de los Niños, Camino Gral. Belgrano y 501, Manuel B. Gonnet, La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina. If Mundo Nuevo is one of the reasons for your trip, you can use this specific, locally named attraction to guide your search for a holiday rental in Gonnet.

A look at the project’s history

The Jorge H. Lima Historical Archive is part of the República de los Niños complex. It is named after Jorge H. Lima, who carried out the project together with architect Alberto Cuenca and also shared technical management with him. This connection adds a specific name from the project’s history to the República’s educational idea. For visitors interested not only in its activities but also in how a project like this came about, the archive offers a historical point of interest.
