Mammoth Museum

If you have wanted to understand more about the diverse nature of life on Earth and the mysterious manner in which animal species have appeared or disappeared over time then this the place for you. Housing a varied collection of prehistoric animal skeletons and other remains as well as life-size animal reproductions, the Barcelona Mammoth Museum is designed to offer both the general public and specialist researchers a window onto the nature of the Ice Age and Ice Age animals.

The exhibits were brought together with the help of some of the world’s most complete paleontological collections and with prehistoric remains excavated during expeditions in the Americas, Canada and Russia. On a visit to this fascinating museum, you will be able to actually touch and feel the teeth and tusks of a mammoth, smell the horn of a woolly rhinoceros and admire realistic reproductions of primitive cave paintings that decorate the walls and ceilings. One gallery showcases mammoth ivory carvings made by some of the most accomplished artisans from all over the world.

The museum opens every day from 10am to 9pm. Audioguides are available in English, French, Russian, German, Italian, Spanish and Catalan.
