Natural History Museum

For Daddy,
   So you can come along, too.
Love,
   All the Littles





Welcome to the Natural History Museum

 Explore the Mysteries of Life on Earth


Mammal Hall
Are you brave enough to march right up stare a wild animal in the face? Not many of us are. And we rarely get an opportunity to do so — even at the zoo. Our Mammal hall allows you to study in detail dozens of magnificent and fascinating creatures. 

Dinosaurs

The all-new, 14,000-square-foot Dinosaur Hall is twice the size of the Museum’s old dinosaur galleries. It will rival the world’s leading dinosaur halls for the number of individual fossils displayed, the size and spectacular character of the major mounts, and the way that paleontology comes alive!



Fin Whale Passage


The 63-foot-long specimen, which weighs more than 7,000 pounds, has been re-articulated to create a more realistic impression of the living animal. 

 Guard at the Gem Vault

Gem and Mineral Hall


The Gem and Mineral Hall displays more than 2,000 spectacular specimens within two large galleries that comprise what is considered to be one of the finest exhibits of gems and minerals in the world.
Please come again.
Exhibits change frequently.
