What you need to know
- Aha?! Science Lab hours are shorter than the museum's: closed Mondays and open afternoons only on Tuesday and Thursday

- Quietest in the afternoon and on Wednesday evenings, when the museum stays open until 8pm
About
A natural history museum built around a dinosaur hall, where a Tyrannosaurus, a Triceratops and a long-necked Diplodocus stand over the floor. Other galleries cover whales and elephants, the deep sea, coral reefs, insects, and 47-million-year-old fossils from the nearby Messel Pit.
In the Aha?! Science Lab, kids handle more than 100 natural objects, look at them under microscopes and help sort samples for real research projects.
