Dinosaur Era
No visitor will want to skip this gallery, as it features our most prized asset: Trix the T. rex.
Early Humans
How did man come to be? Naturalis attempts to answer this sweeping question in an original way. It does so through a set of unique fossils belonging to Homo erectus, one of our earliest ancestors.
Live Science
With its large windows facing the street, Live Science functions as a shop window for Naturalis. This place is where you will meet our researchers and collection managers, so that you can see and experience what their work is all about.
RexperienceTravel back in time to the T. rex
66 million years ago, the Earth was populated by awe-inspiring dinosaurs. Imagine that you could travel back to that time and suddenly stand eye to eye with a T. rex…
The Rexperience is no ordinary museum exhibit. It's an immersive experience! Step inside our futuristic travel agency and board the space capsule... But be sure to buckle your seatbelt, because you're in for a rocky ride!
Paperjellyfish
Art by Veronica Hodges
Stunning creatures that are carried along by the ocean’s currents: jellyfish. With her paper versions - a staggering 600 in total - Danish artist Veronica Hodges demands our attention for the vulnerability of the oceans, the source of all life on Earth. The installation will be on show in the Atrium of Naturalis in september.
