The museum is located near the Pole Mokotowskie metro station. The museum consists of a main high hall where you can see, among others, dinosaur models and skeletons of cave animals (mammoth and woolly rhinoceros), as well as exhibits on the upper floor (where you can mainly find display cases with rocks and minerals). Plus, visiting the exhibition is free!

Face to face with a dinosaur and a mammoth

One of the most eye-catching attractions for kids are the dinosaur models located in the main hall, some of them are suspended above our heads! Do you see that feathered reptile - it's supposedly an accurate replica of that prehistoric creature! Those hanging above can be viewed better from the balcony railings on the upper floor.
