Additional Information & Description
The Natural History Museum Venice brings the natural world into focus across two exhibition floors, with collections ranging from botany to zoology. Its displays take you from life in the sea to the distant past, connecting the study of nature with the remarkable variety of living forms.
Whale skeletons and an Adriatic underwater habitat
The ground floor houses the Cetacean Gallery, where the skeletons of a baleen whale and a young sperm whale give you a close look at these marine mammals. Alongside it, the Tegnùe Aquarium reconstructs a particular underwater rocky environment of the Upper Adriatic Sea. These are two distinct perspectives on marine life: one centres on the skeletal structure of whales, while the other presents a habitat from the waters of the Adriatic.
Fossils, collecting and the diversity of life
Upstairs, three sections give the visit a broader scientific scope. The first is dedicated to fossils, turning attention to the remains of past life. The second traces the evolution of collecting nature and the birth of scientific museology, placing the museum’s subject within the history of how people gather and study natural specimens. The third explores the variety of living forms and the complexity of their adaptations and specialisations. Together, these sections move beyond individual specimens to examine how natural history is collected, interpreted and understood.
