The Senckenberg Naturmuseum Frankfurt is one of Germany's largest and most important natural history museums. Part of the Senckenberg Research Institute and Natural History Society, it has brought natural history to life since moving to its current home in 1907. The museum presents the diversity of life and the evolution of organisms through extensive permanent exhibitions—from dinosaur skeletons and the world-renowned Messel Pit fossils to the evolution of humankind—alongside special exhibitions and an interactive science lab. Scientific research and public education have gone hand in hand at Senckenberg since its founding, making it both a leading research institution and a place of discovery for visitors of all ages.
