The collection forms the foundation of the Natural History Museum Rotterdam. It is used in exhibitions, museum education, research and publications.
The museum is full of birds, fish, reptiles, mammals, shells, and insects. All types of fossils found in the Netherlands can be seen in the special exhibition ‘Picked up Dredged Hammered’. There is also a fine cabinet of curiosities and an interactive exhibition that displays how animals and plants adapt in our cities creating a fascinating urban ecology. There is always something new to see in our programme of temporary exhibitions.
There are always activities to do in the museum; on this Dutch page you will find details.
