An excellent museum with an entry fee

An excellent museum with an entry fee of just €5. The structure is astonishingly spacious and houses a significantly larger number of displays than I initially anticipated. Everything is methodically arranged and it took approximately one hour to view everything at a fairly swift speed. I could see families spending a longer time here without any inconvenience. The explanatory plaques are solely in French and German, so if your only language is English and you desire to understand what you're observing, it would be advisable to purchase an audio guide! There's an abundant amount of taxidermy on display and it's difficult to evade if you're not a fan. Observing some of the more uncommon animals was intriguing. Our main reason for visiting was the Asteroid exhibition, which was impressive. There were numerous instances of celestial stones (including one you can smell!) and enlightening exhibits. In summary, this is a commendable and well-maintained museum offered at a very reasonable cost. It's an ideal place to immerse oneself in a wealth of knowledge across various areas, from natural history to space exploration. The exhibits are interactive and engaging, perfect for both children and adults alike. Despite the language barrier, the museum's extensive collection is visually impressive enough to keep visitors interested. The staff is also friendly and helpful, ready to assist with any queries. I highly recommend this museum for anyone interested in learning and having a great time.
