Go here see the aquarium ,, and all the other rooms over four floors with loads to do for all ages ... Near all other attractions ..
Really a good place if you are tired of seeing Mozart in everywhere of Salzburg. Impressive collection from aquarium to other exhibition. Not only for kids, grown-ups who are interested in science or animals should visit here.
My husband and I stumbled across this museum when we took the lift down from the footpath above the city by the Modern Art Museum. We realised it was free on the Salzburg card so decided to have a look around. There is a fairly large aquarium included in the price which is nice to look around. There are also a number of large displays of dinosaurs and other stuffed animals from all continents of the world, plus many other exhibits including a whole section on the human body (including rather life like nude statues of both a female and a male and a display detailing different sexual positions!) There is plenty of interactive stuff for kids and a new Space section is opening soon which looks really good. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was that some of the displays were not translated into English. Despite this, we spent a good 1 1/2 hours there and as it was free on our Salzburg card, it is a good attraction if you have the time to spend or the weather lets you down.
Not expecting a lot from this and really inly went because we passed it and it was 'free' with Salzburgcard. Five floors of really interesting stuff in a modern learning environment, though not overly 'telly'. Quite small themed areas keep interest from flagging and everything really well-presented. Plenty of interactive stuff to keep young ones interested including one big science area. Most exhibits have English translation/summary.Good for adults, but would be great fir kids.
If you have any small interest in any sort of natural history or technology then make sure you come here. A large portion of the museum had English displays which were very helpful, even those which didn't were still very interesting to look at. Three stories of hands-on activities were great fun, even for adults! Definitely worth a trip there, very easy to find too.
This place is great for fun and educational at the same time. I think that my parents and I enjoyed it just as much as my 6 year old did. Live, pictures, stuffed, videos, it has a little bit of it all.
We loved the Haus der Natur! Coming from California during a winter break, who knew this place would be so cool! Very well done, informative, interesting, great for all ages! Great location and affordable!
I'm 37 and sill learned new things here. Good to join in and play on the machines. We only spent 2 hours here but you could have spent an entire afternoon.
Not your typically American museum, which is what I was expecting. Incredible life-size exhibits, with English translations under the German information. The 10 euro adult ticket (I think 4.50 for kids) includes the I amazing science center that is so fun for kids, and parents. We saw so many parents sneak a turn on the equipment :) great afternoon trip!
There are some great hands on and informative exhibits, if you can deal with the masses of school children here on field trips. If you have kids with you, this is a must do for families. It was just my wife and I, but we enjoyed learning from some of the great scientific exhibits. The Human Body exhibit was especially good and informative fun.
