Review:
Housed in a commanding cubic 60’s building, The Natural History Museum of Geneva is one of the most popular city museums, attracting over 250,000 visitors every year. If you are not fond of taxidermy you may be tempted to skip the first floor, which displays over 200 local stuffed animals which comprise their “Regional Fauna” exhibit. Next up you will find a large collection of tropical animals and birds including reconstructions of extinct species like the emu and dodo. Once you reach the upper levels the emphasis changes to astronomy and evolution and exhibits include some very ancient fossils and an earthquake simulator. A café and a museum shop complete the picture.
