Be it scientific, cultural or educational, this 350-year-old museum has something for everyone! Located in the heart of the Jardin des Plantes botanical gardens, it has dinosaur and whale skeletons, a stuffed rhinoceros dated from Louis XVI's reign, minerals and giant crystals, numerous insects, and everything you could ever want to know about the history of the botanical world. The museums centerpiece, the Grande Galerie de l'Evolution, is a mine of information about the evolution of different species, the relationship between man and nature and problems related to over-population and pollution. All this at the rate of EUR6 for adults.
