Programme Natural History Collection Day
Switzerland's natural history museums and botanical gardens house over 60 million natural history objects, and each one has a story to tell. These treasures are usually well protected in collection storage rooms, but for once they will be put in the spotlight.
On National Natural History Collections Day, Sunday 27 October, 20 institutions across Switzerland will open their doors for an exciting look behind the scenes. Let yourself be enchanted by incredible stories about bizarre creatures, eccentric collectors and adventurous discoveries!
Here you will find all information about the National Natural History Collections Day.
