Südostbayerisches Naturkunde- und Mammut-Museum Siegsdorf

The museum in Siegsdorf displays fossils and rocks from millions of years of Earth's history across its exhibition spaces. The collections include bones from large animals, minerals, and other finds that show how nature and climate changed over time.

The institution was founded in 1995 following the discovery of mammoth bones in 1975 near the town. This find led to the creation of a museum to make the fossils and other geological treasures of the region accessible to visitors.

The collections tell the story of this region's geological past and how people adapted to the landscape over time. Visitors can see how the environment and living conditions changed across different periods.

The museum is located in town and easy to reach, with accessible facilities for all visitors throughout the building. Plan enough time to explore the different exhibitions at your own pace, especially if you are interested in fossils and natural history.

The museum houses one of Europe's most complete and largest mammoth skeletons, impressively displayed in a central exhibition space. Visitors can also see a reconstructed Stone Age garden where ancient techniques come to life.
