State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart, Natural history museum in Stuttgart, Germany.

The State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart contains two buildings: Museum am Löwentor focusing on paleontology and Schloss Rosenstein dedicated to biology exhibitions.

Founded in 1791, the museum's original collection at Neckarstraße suffered substantial damage during World War II, with some specimens salvaged from the destruction.

The museum maintains a collection of 12 million scientific objects, including fossils, biological specimens, and geological artifacts for research and education.

The museum operates Tuesday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, weekends from 10 AM to 6 PM, with parking currently under renovation at Museum am Löwentor.

The Löwentor Museum displays a 3D presentation of the Meyerasaurus plesiosaur, recovered from the ruins of the original museum after World War II.
