The Science Behind Museum Fatigue
If you love museums, but you find yourself lagging in the middle of your visit, it may be due to museum fatigue.
Though museum fatigue in itself is not delightful, that it has been identified and studied is. Museum-goers need not be in the dark about why an intense afternoon of art and artifact viewing may lead to mental and physical exhaustion.
Factors that cause museum fatigue contribute to how our capacity to take in more stimuli begins to wane about half an hour after entering a museum.
