The Philosophy Garden

philosophy for everyone


The Philosophy Garden is a virtual philosophy museum where we reflect on important issues that matter to our lives, starting from brief animated videos created by experts for everyone. 


Map of the Garden


In The Philosophy Garden you find 11 original explainer videos.

You can watch the videos in any order you like as they are all self-standing. Some address similar issues or are related to one another so you find them in the same area of the Garden.

Four areas are currently open for you to visit.
