The museum is responsible for the management of the national natural history collections as well as the associated research and public outreach. The collections form the absolute core of the museum. They include approx. 14 million objects collected over 400 years, including skins, skeletons, insects on needles, herbarium plants, fossils, minerals and meteorites.
The collections form the foundations of the museum’s research, teaching and outreach efforts, and for a wide range of international research. As well as being a research tool and outreach resource, the collections are also a link to our cultural heritage: many objects exemplify a preservation technique of a specific era, have inspired classic works of art or tell a story of the era in which they were collected.
