On an area of 2000 m2, the St.Gallen Nature Museum offers discoveries in the local animal and mineral world. The open exhibition presentation with walk-in room pictures invites visitors to become active themselves - now also with the digital museum guide in three languages (D, E, F). The focus is on the largest landscape relief in Switzerland of the cantons of St.Gallen and Appenzell with the diverse animal world between Lake Constance and Ringelspitz. In the "realm of the bear", large native predators, living forest ants and the cave bear await. The top floor invites you on a journey through the evolutionary history of life: the most important exhibit is the original skeleton of a duck-billed dinosaur. Technical inventions modeled on nature are also a theme. Anyone fascinated by crystals will find what they are looking for in the artificial rock fissure. The museum café with garden terrace and the museum park, where casts of fossils can be discovered, provide a fitting finale.
