On the famous Sunday where I visited the other two museums in the city of Verona since the entrance was only € 1 I also wanted to visit the Museum of Natural Sciences of Verona which is recognized for its continuous and persistent research activity alongside the countryside and archaeological excavation and collection of materials.

I had already visited this museum as a young man because of course I came on a trip with the school because it is a very suitable museum, let's say for children and young people who want to see animals and archaeological finds.

In fact, the museum is located inside Palazzo Pompei which is one of the historic palaces of Verona and here there are 14 exhibition rooms with a library and laboratories where the various samples and the museum offices are analyzed.The first section that you visit is that linked to geology and paleontology where many fossil finds are kept that have been found and here in the areas adjacent to the city.

Because here in the province of Verona several deposits of these finds have been found. Unfortunately, few funds are allocated because if more were excavated, many would be found.

In fact, soon I intend to go to another museum where there are practically only fossils who were fine for those who do not know are plants or fish that have remained stratified in the various layers of the earth.

They are really beautiful really impressive things even they arrived preserved and up to the present day with the part of the internal bone and even in some fish the little fish that had been previously eaten has also fossilized.

They even found fossilized palms more than 3 meters high because the area here near Verona was a tropical area at the time, they are gigantic !!

Even this you see in the photo above is a fossilized crocodile it seems impossible but in Italy at that time crocodiles lived precisely because it was a tropical area.

Then there was an area dedicated to minerals with all the mineral species that were extracted in the area of the province of Verona but also in northern Italy.

And then there is a last area where numerous animals have been collected that have been embalmed because these you see in the photo are real animals and have been treated with embalming to make them last over time.

In fact, children went crazy seeing these animals because most likely living in the city many of these children do not have the opportunity to see them.

I hope you enjoyed this post anyway tonight the complete video of this visit to this fantastic museum will be released on my YouTube channel where entry costs € 4.50 seems to me a really affordable price for everyone but if you happen to be in Verona on the first Sunday of each month until May the entry is only € 1.

the only criticism I can make that this museum is the fact that there was no audio guide that could explain the various sectors of the museum and the museum is really dated because if you noticed the photos did not come out very well due to the neon that still they use to illuminate the various display cases.
