Chlupáč Museum

Chlupáč Museum, Geological museum at Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic.

Chlupac Museum is a geology museum at Charles University in Prague displaying fossils, minerals, and geological maps from different periods of Earth's history. The collections illustrate how the planet developed over millions of years through these visual and material records.

The museum's collections trace back to specimens gathered at Charles University's Faculty of Science since the 19th century. It is named after Professor Ivo Chlupáč, a geologist and teacher at the faculty, and was formally opened on 3 December 2008 in the basement of the Albertov 6 building.

The museum is named after Professor Ivo Chlupáč, a geologist and teacher at the Faculty of Science. Its fossils come from collections begun at the faculty in the 19th century, and the displays include specimens from the Barrandian region and the Cretaceous period.

The museum occupies a single room in the basement of Charles University's Faculty of Science building at Albertov 6, part of the Institute of Geology and Palaeontology. It opens to the public on Wednesdays from 10:00 to 17:00, except during university holidays and public holidays. The faculty's Hrdlicka Museum of Man is in the building at Vinicna 7.

The 8-metre Carnotaurus replica is the first dinosaur skeleton to be permanently displayed in Czechia. Since April 2011 the exhibition has also included the second officially described dinosaur track from Czech territory, an Anomoepus footprint from U Devíti Křížů.
