Natural History Museum - The world is changing, and so are we


Natural History Museum Hintze Hall
Our central space is now closed for a spectacular redevelopment until mid-summer 2017. The space will feature new exhibits exploring our relationship with the natural world to inspire generations to come.

During these works the rest of the Museum remains open as usual, and there is still plenty to see and do. Watch our video to find out more.

Visit the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition, refuel at the T. rex Grill, and explore our collection from meteorites and minerals, to dinosaurs and Neanderthals.
