Over half a million specimens and natural history literature and data extending back over three centuries are housed in this fascinating museum. The star attraction is the Victorian taxidermy collection of Edward Booth with hundreds of British birds displayed in recreated natural settings, The museum is also full of insects from butterflies to beetles, a killer whale skeleton and dinosaur bone and geology and fossils.
New to the Museum is our new “Life in the Garden” display inspired by Brighton & Hove children celebrating wildlife in the city and the effects of climate change on the environment.
