Madrid Museum of Natural Science

Expositions, activities and collections a fun way to discover science

Madrid Museum of Natural Science offers you a fun way to discover sciences, children love to walk through exposition, collections, animals and experiences.  From my point of view is an excellent way to amused your children in a rainy day in Madrid, don’t get me wrong, is also a great experience in a sunny day, but I personally prefer outdoors activity when you have great weather.

You will find several permanent expositions on biodiversity, minerals, human evolution, civilizations, etc.

There are also ephemeral expositions, you will find out the day of your visit. Sometimes ephemeral exposition they are not included in the regular ticket price, you can ask to be sure. In this moment, you have “Oceans, the last wild territory”.
