    Small museum about geology and biology, which is instead enormous in content... Rarely does one have the opportunity to see the wonders of mineralogy, stones, fossils and other remains of nature so easily and clearly displayed. The part dedicated to the animal kingdom is impressive... with those diverse specimens that seem to look at you. The hominid skulls are interesting, as is the attempt to square the new finds from Denisovans, Floresiensis, Luzoniensis, and so on. The only complaint I could make is the lack of care and promotion. Two examples: A piece inside a display case appears fallen and no one puts it right, and a student I asked about the museum just 30 meters away didn't even know it existed. P.S. The meteorite is not recorded.

    Excellent collection of fossils, minerals and stuffed animals. The museum has 3 small rooms, one dedicated to stuffed animals in which there are a large number of small animals and birds, perhaps they are too crowded. The animals are inside a display cabinet with shelves of considerable height so it is difficult for a child to see the animals on the top on their own. In the second room there are minerals and fossils and a small collection of skulls from different ages of man. In the third room is the meteorite that fell in Valencia. A video about meteorites is projected and small meteorite fragments from all over the world are on display. Very good attention from the staff that manages the museum. It's a good place to take the little ones. The site is small and looks pretty fast.

    Excellent collection of fossils, minerals and stuffed animals. It is not large, in an hour or a little more you can see it. Very interesting and with content adapted to children. Ideal to visit with family. Free access.

    It presents some exceptional specimens, many of them of great beauty. Ideal to review the Iberian fauna! The paleontology and geology room contains many fossil specimens from different periods in the history of the Earth, not forgetting the head of the T-Rex!!!!!!. Beautiful and free, it's worth it 😊

    It is a good museum, but there are fossil samples that need more preparation to better display their beauty, the species of the fossil samples also need to be specified and there was an error in the chemical composition of the pyrite, it says that it is FeS, when it is FeS2. Otherwise well.

    Small but perfect place. They have everything very well explained in two environments. Animals and other minerals and fossils. The staff are very friendly and if you go with children they will give you a small detail. In time, in a long hour you see everything very well. We will return for sure!!

    (Translated by Google) Natural science museum, but it's worth seeing. With stuffed animals, skeletons, fossils, minerals ... (Original) Museo de ciencias naturales pequeñito pero que vale la pena ver. Con animales disecados, esqueletos, fósiles, minerales...

    (Translated by Google) The penalty is the little publicity that is made of this museum. There are no banderoles outside the premises. It would not hurt to put some indication of its existence even at the entrance of the Campus. Neither the people who live in Burjassot or the public schools know of their existence. (Original) La pena es la poca publicidad que se hace de este museo. No hay ni banderolas fuera del recinto. No estaría de más poner alguna indicación de su existencia aunque fuese en la entrada del Campus. Ni la gente que vive en Burjassot o los colegios públicos saben de su existencia.
