Impressive natural diversity

With almost 100 years of history, this museum is dedicated to the fascinating flora and fauna of Thuringia. The highlight is undoubtedly the impressive 350-year-old English oak, which literally towers over the four floors of the museum and is the symbol of life. What makes the museum really special is its extensive natural history collections. Here you will find the largest entomological collection (insects) with around one million specimens of over 50,000 different species. The best thing about it is that many of these species were only discovered and described through research in the museum - true treasures for science. The dedication and passion with which the museum looks after its collections and prepares them for scientific purposes is admirable. A visit to the Natural History Museum Erfurt promises not only an educational experience, but also an inspiring one. It is the perfect place to discover the wonders of nature and be enchanted by the treasures of this museum. If you have the opportunity, don't miss it!
