'Haus der Natur' - Nature Museum and Competence Centre
The Haus der Natur (founded in 1924) is the local natural history museum of Salzburg. It houses a large exhibition about all aspects of nature, a Science Center, an aquarium and a reptile-zoo. With our exhibitions we attempt to inspire our visitors, to stimulate their interest in the natural world and to enhance their understanding for natural processes. As a Nature competence centre the Haus der Natur plays an important role in the scientific exploration and documentation of nature in Salzburg.

New special exhibition
from 1. December 2010
In 2010 the international year of biodiversity everyone talked about the diversity of life. This diversity is endangered – no one knows how many species vanish, or how many habitats are destroyed each day. They disappear forever from our planet.
This new exhibition confronts us not only with the threats to the diversity of life it also shows why biodiversity matters to us and what we need to do to protect it.
