Sherbrooke Nature and Science Museum, Natural history museum in downtown Sherbrooke, Canada.
The Sherbrooke Nature and Science Museum houses over 65,000 specimens including amphibians, reptiles, birds, fossils, invertebrates, plants, and minerals from North America.
The museum's heritage dates back to 1879 when the Musée du Séminaire de Sherbrooke began collecting natural science specimens before relocating to its current location in 2002.
The museum presents bilingual exhibitions in French and English, featuring interactive displays and educational programs that highlight Quebec's natural heritage and scientific discoveries.
The facility provides guided tours in multiple languages, free parking, a boutique, conference rooms, and designated picnic areas for visitors throughout the year.
The museum occupies the former Julius-Kayser Building, which manufactured lingerie before its transformation into an educational institution with an interactive science theater.
