Free to visit, the Grant Museum of Zoology is one of the oldest natural history collections in the UK and is the last remaining university natural history museum in London. Home to 68,000 zoological specimens, the collection is a unique window on the entire animal kingdom.
We are happy to announce that the Museum will open again to the general public on Wednesdays and Thursdays 1pm - 5pm and Saturdays 11am – 5pm from Wednesday 19 May 2021 with safety measures and pre-booking in place.
How we’re keeping you safe
In each of our museums we’ve installed sanitising stations, our staff will be wearing face coverings and we’ve temporarily removed any drawing materials and shared items. We’re keeping visitor numbers low and we’ve set-up one-way routes for you to follow.
In return, you’ll need to wear a face covering inside our museums and when moving around the UCL campus (unless you are not able to for personal reasons). As in other public spaces, you need to keep 2m away from other visitors and check in when you arrive. If you develop any symptoms of Covid-19 after your visit, please contact NHS Test & Trace. All visitors over the age of 16 will need to provide contact details on arrival, or check-in using the NHS Test & Trace app.
