How come Alfred Nobel got "the idea of ideas" which for the past 100 years has given a Nobel Prize to more than 800 persons and organisations? How does a creative person work? The Nobel Prize Ceremony in the Concert Hall and the banquet at the City Hall (with the famous Nobel ice cream on the menu) are only the tip of the iceberg of the Nobel system. The Centennial Exhibition describes this unique system, which handles nominations from all over the world and a great number of expert opinions work that has been carried out continuously by the various Nobel committees during the past 100 years.
