Known forclassiceducationalgrandimperial
The Natural History Museum sits in a grand imperial building facing the Kunsthistorisches Museum and houses one of the world's great natural history collections, including the 25,000-year-old Venus of Willendorf. The meteorite hall and the dinosaur skeletons are genuine highlights, and the building itself is as spectacular as the contents. Crowds are lighter than the art museums nearby, but weekend afternoons with families can get noisy.
