Natural History Museum

  Natural History Museum sits at the edge of the picturesque Santa Croce district in Venice, offering a comprehensive glimpse into the natural world. Established in 1923, this museum features an extensive collection of fossils and specimens, including a massive 3.5-meter-long skeleton of a sperm whale suspended from the ceiling. The museum's primary aim is to educate visitors about biodiversity, evolution, and conservation efforts. Open year-round, visitors can explore engaging exhibits or participate in hands-on activities, especially during the vibrant months of spring when special programs and workshops often take place. As you wander through its halls, expect to see everything from mineral displays to ancient artifacts that narrate the story of Earth's history.
