Geneva Natural History Museum
Activities: We visited the Museum d'histoire naturelle de Genève, which has two parts: a permanent exhibition featuring regional fauna and animals from around the world, and temporary exhibitions. We were there when the dinosaur exhibition had just ended and there was one on ants
Highlights: We really enjoyed being able to visit a museum for free and seeing so many different species. The kids loved the 120 dioramas of regional fauna and animals from around the world ✨
GENEVA MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY
Activities: We visited the Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle de Genève. The museum is on 4 floors, the first two are dedicated to all kinds of animals. We spent 2 hours on the first two levels. We saw a savanna with life-size animals, birds, ducks, insects, bats, whales, and more
Highlights: The children had very different reactions. Some were afraid of insects, others of the sounds of animals. But overall, they were amazed. I found the details of the animals very well worked. I will come back with my daughter in a few years without hesitation ✨
