Natural History Museum

Oxford University Museum of Natural History was founded in 1860, and today it holds an internationally-significant collection of natural history specimens and archives. Housed in a stunning neo-Gothic building inspired by the Pre-Raphaelites, the Museum is home to a lively programme of research, teaching and public events. 

Entry to the Museum is FREE and no longer ticketed and there are often special events and activities on offer.

Groups of more than ten visitors must book in advance.
