Evolutionsmuseet is Uppsala University's evolution museum, split between paleontology, zoology, and mineral collections. It is the place in Uppsala to see dinosaur skeletons, Ice Age animals, fossils, and the long scientific habit of collecting and classifying the natural world.
The museum suits travellers who like university cities for their scholarship as much as their architecture. It is quieter than the cathedral-and-castle circuit, but it gives Uppsala a different texture: a town where science collections have been built up over centuries and are still used for teaching.
