Science is something you just have to experience!
In our workshops, you will explore the versatility of the animal world, or what the building blocks of the Earth are, what life used to be like or the origins of mankind, and more importantly, how we have obtained all that information. Try it for yourself by observing and asking questions, and then trying to work things out in a creative, fun and educational way. Experience it and find out for yourself!

From excavations to the interpretation of their lifestyles, a panorama of knowledge about dinosaurs, for larger: evolution and classification elements.
The world of arthropods, mostly insects and spiders. Come shudder to exotic insects, spiders and scorpions of the vivarium.
What is biodiversity?
How it develops or, conversely, ailing?
What is its importance in our quality of life?
How to promote a daily basis?
A dive in a habitat full of surprises - the city - can answer these questions.
A mini-rally among the most remarkable pieces of our rooms starting from our room "250 Years of Natural Sciences" which traces the history of the Museum and its collections.
It is also possible to follow a general tour of the Museum

The fantastic story of life
Join us on this unforgettable journey through the history of life. We stop at the fossils of dinosaurs. In the evolution hall, you stand face to face with different kinds of animals. With Darwin as guide we explore the processes of evolution from the very beginning of life in six stages. We get even a brief look into the future. You will be amazed from whom you all descend!Workshops
