"Au cœur de la Citadelle de Besançon, le Muséum ouvre, en mai 2017, son nouvel espace d’exposition permanente dédié à la biodiversité, appelé Naturalium. Réparti en six salles, il vient compléter et introduire les autres espaces du Muséum illustrant la biodiversité animale.
Avec le Naturalium, le Muséum s’appuie sur la richesse de ses collections patrimoniales, permettant ainsi au public de découvrir des spécimens de zoologie, de botanique et de paléontologie dont certains n’ont jamais été exposés. L’ensemble est complété par des supports multimédias, des manipulations et des outils de médiation, avec une alternance d’ambiances immersives (reconstitution d’une prairie franc-comtoise, d’une cabane d’affût ou d’un salon-cuisine restituant l’environnement quotidien) ou instructives."

*************************************************

(EN) "The Museum of Besançon will open a brand new space dedicated to biodiversity in 2017.

In harmony with 3 important tasks of the Museum that are knowledge diffusion, preservation and awareness measures about scientific and natural heritage protection, this permanent exhibition covering 170 m² and divided in 6 rooms will help to understand what biodiversity is, how it changes and how we protect it.

Different units placed in the spaces of the Museum dedicated to animals (zoological garden, aquarium, insectarium, noctarium) will supplement the whole. The Museum will make use of the richness of its collections to help visitors discover botanical, zoological and geological specimens that have, for the most part, never been exhibited. The Biospace will also claim to be an interactive place and a civic forum where everyone will be encouraged to take a critical look at the exposure of biodiversity." (visit link)
