Incredible museum with superbly constructed exhibits . Compact location, but so many wonderful things to see. Audio/Visuals are incredible, a real treat for the senses.
Fascinating fossils and excellent presentation of the collection including the traditional 19th century presentation for some of the animal collections. Great for kids tired of art .
If u need a little break from churches and museums this one will give u a breather! Still about old things but a diff angle! I loved how old things were and the taxidermy is old school style.
Prepare yourself for a suggestive and engaging visit...discover the secrets of living creatures...admire one of the rarest dinosaur exhibits in the world, a huge Ouranosaurus nigeriensis... Read more
Just one dinosaur ? They must have been blind! So many wonderful exhibits covering all of natural history. Better than any museum I have been to in Australia and China where we now live! Worth it
This natural history museum at the Fondaco dei Turchi is home to the Acquario delle Tegnue and Sala dei Dinosauri, two attractions that will surely be loved by kids and adults alike.
Little museum , it has interesting displays with paleontological finds, suitable for children (not noisy ones). Beautiful courtyard inside.
Much nicer than many of the other museums in Venice! Also has air conditioning , unlike most of the museums .
In case you have kids you should definitely visit this museum ! :) they will adore it!
An interesting museum , but all the comments and notes are in Italian only. If you don't speak Italian - you'll miss half of the experience
It's an amazing voyage throght the Earth's history, with a new design of the tour . At the upper side it's a museum of an old museum ...don't left!
Great selection of fossils , few signs in English but it's quite fun working out what they mean.
Great range of exhibits
Interesting Museum about animals, dinasours and more????
A good museum . A beautiful place to explore the natural history. Don't miss it!
Intriguing and well-planned flow of exhibitions with seamless transitions
Lovely museum , highly recommended !!
Pretty weak- the aquarium is particularly bad. Not as good as new York or London natural science museums .
Better for kids but not bad
Don't waste your time here. Only one full dinosaur on display & no photographs allowed
Ottima esperienza ...museo grande e ben organizzato . Da vedere!
Veramente molto bello il nuovo allestimento!!!
da vedere!!!
