Housed in the Fontego dei Turchi Palace at the Grand Canal, the museum is an institution that coordinates and conducts scientific research in the territory, ensuring the maintenance and increase of scientific collections, organizing educational activities and services to the citizens. The new, evocative and engaging layout has a modern and original museological facility.

This museum is situated on the south bank of the Grand canal where the nearest ferry terminal is at San Stae and we got entry via our Venezia Unica museum pass. The museum housed collections of flora, fauna, palaeontology & ethnography which was amassed from the world's continents by Venice's eminent explorers. I have visited a number of Natural history museums in the past but where this museum excelled was in the use of lighting and 3-D positioning of exhibits. I particularly enjoyed the fossil, seashell and butterfly sections. There were a number of local school groups in the museum at the time we were there, as it is a place that would be educationally good for children.
