Goseong Dinosaur Museum

Goseong Dinosaur Museum, Paleontological museum in Goseong-gun, South Korea.

The Goseong Dinosaur Museum stands in Sangjogam County Park in Hai-myeon, Goseong County. Its main building is shaped like an Iguanodon, and a 24-metre tower of steel trusses and mosaic tiles near the entrance represents a Brachiosaurus. Inside, five exhibition halls over four floors display 96 items, including full-body replicas of dinosaurs and pterosaurs and footprint fossils.

The museum opened in November 2004 following the discovery of one of the world's largest dinosaur footprint fossil sites along the coast. This finding attracted research attention and led to establishing the institution to advance paleontological study in the region.

The museum stands in Sangjogam County Park, next to the Goseong Deokmyeong-ri dinosaur and bird footprint fossil site in the Jinju Formation of the Gyeongsang Supergroup. Its 96 exhibits include full-body skeleton replicas and pterosaur skeletons, and the third floor displays footprint fossils. It closes on public holidays.

The location sits near the coast and is straightforward to reach on foot from the surrounding area. Plan to spend at least two to three hours walking through all the halls to view the exhibits thoroughly without rushing.

A defining feature is the link between indoor displays and outdoor areas where visitors can see and touch actual fossilized footprints in their original location. This rare chance to experience fossils in their natural setting sets this place apart from typical museums.
