Welcome to the Story of bones exhibition!

The skeleton forms the internal support structure of vertebrate animals. Various things can be interpreted about an animal just by looking at its bones. For example, we can learn about prehistoric animals’ existence and evolution, infer an owl’s diet or search for signs of illnesses.

In this exhibition you can explore a multitude of skeletons that represent both extant and extinct species.
