Aathal Dinosaur Museum – Encounter the Giants of the Past
The Aathal Dinosaur Museum features a spectacular dinosaur exhibition with original skeletons from the Jurassic period.
Dinosaur skeletons from the museum’s own excavations in the USA form the focal point of the exhibition. The fossils from the Jurassic period, which are unique in the world, include giant, long-necked dinosaurs and stegosaurs.
Besides the museum’s own finds, there are other original fossils to marvel at, such as a marine crocodile, a pterosaur, fossilized wood, and an extensive collection of amber. Replica skeletons, reconstructions and footprints complement these original fossils.
The museum store offers a large selection of dinosaur articles for dinosaur fans. It also encompasses a cafeteria, a garden complete with playground and picnic area, and free parking.
