Museum für Naturkunde, Natural history museum at Fredenbaumpark, Dortmund, Germany
The Museum für Naturkunde spans two floors, displaying biological specimens, geological artifacts, fossils, and minerals from the Ruhr and Westphalia regions.
Following extensive renovations lasting six years, the museum reopened in September 2020 under its new name, Naturmuseum Dortmund, with modernized exhibitions.
The museum maintains a collection that documents the ecological evolution and natural heritage of the Dortmund region through interactive exhibits and educational programs.
Located at Münsterstraße 271, the museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00, with free admission to permanent exhibitions for those under 18.
The museum houses Germany's only complete skeleton of a woolly mammoth cow, alongside aquariums showcasing local water ecosystems from the Ruhr and Möhnesee.
