Description & Infos
The Natural History Museum invites visitors to explore the regional fauna and minerals up close. The walk-through exhibits provide for an interactive experience – now also through a digital museum guide, available in three languages (G, E, F).
Explore Switzerland’s native predators like the bear, the wolf and the lynx, but also the busy life of a living ant hill. Marvel at the largest topographic model of Eastern Switzerland, surrounded by exhibits of the diverse fauna between Lake Constance and Ringelspitz – the highest mountain in the canton of St.Gallen.
The top floor invites visitors to journey through the story of life on Earth and meet the Museum’s weightiest object: an exceptionally well-preserved skeleton of an Edmontosaurus. Lovers of sparkling crystals are in for a treat in the artificial rockscape. Other exhibits explore the sustainable use of natural resources and technical inventions inspired by nature. Recent additions to the museum include children’s trails and discovery trails that change each season. The museum is also home to a café with an outdoor terrace in the museum park, where casts of fossils can be discovered.
