Naturhistorisches Museum in Wien
Die Mineraliensammlung - a collection of minerals
In dieser Abteilung kann man auch riesige Meteoriten bestaunen.
In this department you will find stunning meteorites.
The Venus of Willendorf was found 1908 in the Wachau in Lower Austria. This small lady is a symbol of fertility, she is about 11cm high and about 25.000 years old.
Unfortunately the Venus likes to travel and is not always on display in this museum.
Ich fand die Abteilung der Saurier und anderen Urzeittieren sehr beeindruckend.
I found the department of the dinosaurs and other animals from primeval times very impressive.
