There are some great hands on and informative exhibits, if you can deal with the masses of school children here on field trips. If you have kids with you, this is a must do for families. It was just my wife and I, but we enjoyed learning from some of the great scientific exhibits. The Human Body exhibit was especially good and informative fun.

This place is great for fun and educational at the same time. I think that my parents and I enjoyed it just as much as my 6 year old did. Live, pictures, stuffed, videos, it has a little bit of it all.

If you have any small interest in any sort of natural history or technology then make sure you come here. A large portion of the museum had English displays which were very helpful, even those which didn't were still very interesting to look at. Three stories of hands-on activities were great fun, even for adults! Definitely worth a trip there, very easy to find too.

Spent the afternoon here to stay warm and out of the snow. Definitely worth it! They have an Aquarium and Reptile Zoo - my favourite part.It's an informative and fun place to go for all ages! From Minerals, to animals, to the human body, and reproduction. It's definitely a highlight of my trip to Salzburg.

I'm 37 and sill learned new things here. Good to join in and play on the machines. We only spent 2 hours here but you could have spent an entire afternoon.

At the very beginning I was not sure that everyone would enjoy the visit, so I planned the visit for 2-2.5 hrs. I was totally wrong. Everyone of us found something interesting and event the ordinary stuff you could see in other museums was presented nicely ther - For everyone - the Aquarium, and most of Science Labs - For the a teenage boy - the Space part was the best - For the girl she found everything very, very interesting, of course if you explain to her what different things mean - For my wife as she loves Mozart, the Science lab with Audio experiments was very nice!At the end we had to go out after spending 4 hrs, and yet not managed to see everything we wanted. I can only say that this attraction did manage to entertain ALL of us. And that is not very usual when you travel with kids of different gender and age.If there was one thing to recommend - this would be the museum to put English translations everywhere, not just on 50% of the exhibitions.

We loved the Haus der Natur! Coming from California during a winter break, who knew this place would be so cool! Very well done, informative, interesting, great for all ages! Great location and affordable!

This museum was really big, divided to two parts, museum of Natural History and Science Centre. I spent more than 6 hours to visit both, took my lunch in the meantime in a rush to take a look on next section. Information provided was simple yet important, shoild be understandable for kids. Unfortunately some parts does not have English translation so I could only see the pictures. There are a lot of interactive sections as well. Recommended for family with kids

Not your typically American museum, which is what I was expecting. Incredible life-size exhibits, with English translations under the German information. The 10 euro adult ticket (I think 4.50 for kids) includes the I amazing science center that is so fun for kids, and parents. We saw so many parents sneak a turn on the equipment :) great afternoon trip!

We have traded around the world with our children. This Museum is in our top 5 favorites. It is fantastic! The best evolution exhibit I have ever seen. We loved the interactive Mozart chairs as well.

This museum is great fun, and hugely educating in many fields!It looks much better in real life than in the photos!We are still remembering this place as one of the highlights of our trip to Austria.make sure to have enough time, there are many floors in the Museum.

Really a good place if you are tired of seeing Mozart in everywhere of Salzburg. Impressive collection from aquarium to other exhibition. Not only for kids, grown-ups who are interested in science or animals should visit here.

Not expecting a lot from this and really inly went because we passed it and it was 'free' with Salzburgcard. Five floors of really interesting stuff in a modern learning environment, though not overly 'telly'. Quite small themed areas keep interest from flagging and everything really well-presented. Plenty of interactive stuff to keep young ones interested including one big science area. Most exhibits have English translation/summary.Good for adults, but would be great fir kids.

My husband and I stumbled across this museum when we took the lift down from the footpath above the city by the Modern Art Museum. We realised it was free on the Salzburg card so decided to have a look around. There is a fairly large aquarium included in the price which is nice to look around. There are also a number of large displays of dinosaurs and other stuffed animals from all continents of the world, plus many other exhibits including a whole section on the human body (including rather life like nude statues of both a female and a male and a display detailing different sexual positions!) There is plenty of interactive stuff for kids and a new Space section is opening soon which looks really good. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was that some of the displays were not translated into English. Despite this, we spent a good 1 1/2 hours there and as it was free on our Salzburg card, it is a good attraction if you have the time to spend or the weather lets you down.
