Muséum d'histoire naturelle du Havre, Natural history museum in Le Havre, France.
The museum exhibits extensive collections of paleontology, zoology, and botany specimens across multiple exhibition halls within a classical stone building.
Established in 1881 with collections from director Charles Alexandre Lesueur, the museum suffered significant damage during World War II bombardments in 1944.
The institution maintains 8,000 drawings and manuscripts alongside natural specimens, serving as an educational center for schools and universities in Normandy.
