Darwineum Rostock, Evolution museum in Rostock, Germany
The Darwineum spans 20,000 square meters, featuring eight exhibition areas that present biological evolution through fossils, touchscreens, and living specimens.
The museum's foyer displays Galapagos giant tortoises, representing the species that influenced Charles Darwin's research during his scientific expedition.
The exhibition traces human development through artifacts, from basic stone tools to advanced technologies, illustrating the progression of human intelligence.
Visitors can explore the 4,000-square-meter Tropical Hall daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, observing primates including gorillas and orangutans in natural environments.
