Natuurmuseum Brabant: look big, investigate small

Natuurmuseum Brabant in Tilburg combines striking animals with interactive displays. The sperm whale, the Ice Age theme and discovery activities offer different ways into a family visit.

Plan your visit ↗

Experience the scale first

At the sperm whale, take time to look at the whole. What stands out when you then look at a smaller detail? A large museum piece can impress mainly through its size, but it is often close up that new questions arise.

Exploring the Ice Age

The Ice Age theme with the mammoth is part of what is on offer. Follow the explanation and see which activities go with it. Let children tell you what they discover themselves before you move on; that way a shared route leaves room for different interests.

Investigating for yourself

Interactive features and objects in drawers invite you to look actively. Follow the instructions on what you may open or use. A discovery trail can help you give attention to smaller items alongside the big eye-catchers.

Before you go

Check Mondays and school holidays in the calendar in particular. On public holidays the regular hours may change.
