The natural history museum held a wide collection of pretty much everything that one could think when it's about nature and evolution. The period we visited Milano, the hall No3 was closed and messed up the visitor's guide. Good especially for someone with children in prelimenary/elementary school More

Grand palace to house the museum. The exhibits themselves were very interesting, well-organized. You need several hours to see the whole thing. It is not the Smithsonian, so don't look for multiple complete dinosaur skeletons (although there are a couple!) and vast dioramas. More
