Brachiosaurus, archaeopteryx and more
Visitors are greeted in the entrance area by the head of a giant dinosaur that appears to be looking through the wall. The dinosaur exhibition has recently been completely redesigned: the interactive multimedia display now shows life as it was 150 million years ago in Tendaguru, East Africa.
The heart of the 'Evolution in Action' exhibition is the world's biggest dinosaur skeleton, a Brachiosaurus brancai that stands 13.27 metres high. Look through the Jurascopes to see the dinosaurs virtually come to life before your eyes. For the first time ever, visitors can also see the famous original Berlin example of the prehistoric bird archaeopteryx lithographica.
Other sections of the permanent exhibition cover the origins of the solar system, minerals, fossils, preservation and preparation techniques, and much more besides.
