Oxford University Museum of Natural History

Explore the natural world in a stunning neo-Gothic building at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History. Discover internationally important collections covering zoology, geology, and entomology. Marvel at the dinosaur skeletons dominating the main court, including an Iguanodon and T-Rex. See the famous ‘Oxford Dodo’, mineral displays, and diverse animal specimens. The museum often hosts family-friendly trails, hands-on activities (‘touchable’ tables), and talks, making science accessible and engaging. It also houses the Pitt Rivers Museum (anthropology/archaeology) accessed through the same building (also free). A fascinating free day out in Oxford.
