About Museum fur Naturkunde (Natural History Museum)
Home to the tallest mounted dinosaur skeleton in the world (Giraffatitan brancai, 13.27 meters), along with the Archaeopteryx fossil and a biodiversity wall displaying 3,000 specimens behind glass. The dinosaur hall alone is worth the EUR11 entry. The wet collection room, with 81,880 jars of preserved specimens on illuminated shelves, is unlike anything else in Berlin. Interactive exhibits on minerals, the solar system, and evolution keep kids engaged for 2-3 hours. Consistently one of the best family experiences in the city.
Insider Tips
The dinosaur hall is directly past the entrance and kids will want to stay here. Let them, then explore the rest. The wet collection room on the first floor is genuinely spooky and beautiful. Thursday evenings the museum stays open late with fewer crowds. Book online to skip the ticket queue (EUR11 adults, EUR5 reduced).
