Museo Civico di Zoologia

The Museo Civico di Zoologia is a natural history museum in Rome that displays extensive collections of animal specimens. The rooms contain skeletons, skins, shells, and other preserved objects that show how diverse the animal world is.

The museum was founded in 1932 and is based on collections from the Royal University of Rome and the Papal Academy. Over time, it became an important research institution for studying animals in Italy.

The displays show how animals live in different environments and adapt to their surroundings. Visitors can see here how nature functions and what diversity exists in the animal world.

The museum is located in central Rome and is easily accessible on foot or by public transport. The best time to visit is in the morning or during the week when it is less crowded.

The Skeleton Hall contains an unusual collection of animal bones that researchers from around the world use for study. This section is one of the most important resources for zoological research in Europe.
