Awarded 'Best Kidsproof Museum in Friesland' by the Museum Inspectors

In Natuurmuseum Fryslân, you go on an adventure in nature. Four floors full of information, special animals and plants, assignments, experiments, games and other surprises invite you to be discovered. Doing and experiencing yourself are the focal point

See the treasures that Captain Severein collected on his travels around the world, feel your Little Thumb next to the huge jaws of the blue whale and watch the preparer set up a long-eared owl or kestrel in the Open Atelier. Wander through the various topics in Verwonderland such as albinos, prints & turds and records in the animal world. A visit to Draak Li-Ming is an unforgettable experience for the little ones, while older children can discover everything about the theory of evolution at Darwin's Zolder.

OnderWaterSafari (underwater Safari)
The museum has recently acquired a real attraction! In the OnderWaterSafari (underwater safari) (accessible for 4+) you step into a vehicle that takes you on a journey through the underwater world of the Netherlands. From the fresh water of ditches and lakes to the salty water of the Wadden Sea. Along the way you see what lives below the water level and who knows, you might even encounter them, the Big Five of the underwater world of the Netherlands: the beaver, otter, catfish, seal and porpoise!
