This museum's permanent collection displays the diversity of the animal kingdom, with sections dedicated to birds, mammals and cave-dwelling insects. The educational activities instruct children how to identify animals by their pawprints, birds by their different songs and explain the multiple uses of beeswax. You'll find the museum in Lluís Domènech i Montaner's modernist construction, the Castell dels Tres Dragons, that was first used as a bar and restaurant during the Barcelona's 1888 World Fair.
