Over

Korte feiten: Home to over 1.3 million specimens, the museum showcases an extensive collection of insects including a real dinosaur skeleton. Visitors can marvel at a 5,000-year-old ammonite fossil that reveals ancient ocean life details.

Hoogtepunten: A giant blue whale skeleton suspended in mid-air steals the show in the central hall, creating a dramatic focal point you can walk beneath. The detailed dioramas portray rare animal behaviors like a bushbaby jumping, making observation feel alive and intimate.

Insidertips

  • Comfortable walking shoes are essential due to large exhibit space.
  • Head to the whale skeleton early to avoid crowds around the centerpiece.
  • Photography is allowed, but use natural lighting areas to get the best shots.
  • Skip less-detailed fossil replicas and focus on original specimens for a richer experience.
