Museum of Evolution of Polish Academy of Sciences, Natural history museum in Palace of Culture and Science, Warsaw, Poland
The Museum of Evolution exhibits dinosaur skeletons, fossilized eggs, and primitive mammal remains across multiple dedicated halls within its exhibition space.
The museum originated from a 1968 Gobi Desert dinosaur exhibition, leading to its formal establishment in 1984 within the Palace of Culture and Science.
Polish-Mongolian paleontological expeditions contributed numerous specimens to the museum, including two complete Tarbosaurus skeletons from the Gobi Desert.
The museum entrance is located at the basement level, accessible through Świętokrzyska Street, with multiple public transportation options nearby.
