    Huge place and a must see if you are in the Saltillo area. I was pleasantly surprised by the size and quality of this museum. While the main attraction seems to be fossil exhibits they have some history exhibits as well. The added bonus of a small zoo was surprising too. Very nice place overall, a bit crowded and lacks any real lunch options but other than that it’s a great place to visit.

    In comparison to many other museums in other much advanced and bigger cities the visit is really well on advised. Not only is informative but fun too. The zoo part not a big one but the history museum is really nice. I don't know much Spanish but there are audio guides in English. The 3d experience is a fun thought but needs quality improvement.

    Excellent way to spend the day! I was really blown away by the size and scope of this location: museum, green house, zoo, mercado, snack bar, and a dinosaur area. It was PACKED when we went, but it was a public holiday. I don’t know how it is on a normal weekend or weekday. They had an audio tour that was available in English and Spanish. This is a must see in Saltillo.

    Beautifully designed and full of so much detail. I'm glad I took the time to bring the family out here to visit this museum. The place is bigger than it looks so bring snacks or visit the dining area inside. It took us almost 3 hours to walk through and enjoy it.

    Lovely experience full of history! The gentleman at the entrance is up to good standards to guide visitors and encourage them to visit each area of the museum. Locals pay a lower rate.

    (Translated by Google) It is a natural history museum located in the city of Saltillo, Coahuila. It has different showrooms, a small zoo and a beautiful greenhouse where they sell cacti at a very low price. The facilities are very clean and comply with the healthy distance protocol. They open from Tuesday to Sunday and have promotions constantly, I went on a Tuesday and the cost of entry per person was $ 50 pesos. It is ideal for the whole family and the complete tour takes 2 to 3 hours. Without a doubt it is a place that you must visit !!! (Original) Es un museo de historia natural ubicado en la ciudad de Saltillo, Coahuila. Cuenta con diferentes salas de exhibición, un pequeño zoológico y un invernadero hermoso donde venden cactus a un precio muy bajo. Las instalaciones son muy limpias y cumplen con el protocolo de sana distancia. Abren de martes a domingo y cuentan con promociones constantemente, yo acudí un martes y el costo de la entrada por persona fue de $50 pesos. Es ideal para toda la familia y recorrerlo completo te lleva de 2 a 3 horas. Sin duda es un lugar que debes visitar!!!

  • 4/5 Jolanta Elzbieta Marszalek (. 2 years ago on Google
    We loved it! However, I wish the exhibits descriptions were done better. For example, there was a case of minerals, but no names of them given. So, all we could do is say "the orange one is unique" ans such Also, there was NO English anywhere in the exhibits, so if you don't speak Spanish, you will be lost...

  • 5/5 Julian Romero I. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is amazing! Definitely an attraction in Saltillo you have to visit. Shows a lot of history of the area, the dinosaur fossils found, how the mountains helped create the fossils, the history of the people there, mini zoo, animals you'll find there, the list goes on. You can't come to Saltillo and not see this museum. It was amazing, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Excellent place to get away. The kids loved it and so did I. We went on a nice cool day and the animals were very active on the zoo part. The museum is a lot bigger than I thought and spent around 3-4 hours there. The place is very well maintained

  • 4/5 Juan M. 6 months ago on Google • 70 reviews
    Very good natural history museum, lots of things to see for kids and adults. Loved the paleontology and minerals section of the museum. We had fun as a family. The parking machine is not the most reliable and useful, it only takes small Mexican bills so you’re forced to go back and get change.

  • 5/5 Alejandro M. 4 months ago on Google • 49 reviews
    I love this museum, it has many things to discover from dinosaurs until real snakes! Like Cascabel and Python! 😍 Unfortunately I couldn't see the Gabon snake 🥲 only his skull but the next time I come to Saltillo I will visit it on weekdays! I recommend you arrive early to see everything, eat something here and buy gifts for your friends and family!

  • 5/5 Mauricio H. 7 months ago on Google • 30 reviews
    I was not expecting such an amazing museum, I had doubts with the museum title and the day I went was about 90 degrees outside so I was not very thrilled about it but when I go there and I saw what it really was , I can definitely say everything was worth it , they have a lot to offer.

It does not reach 5 because they do not have the interactive zone well-enabled, which I think could even be changed to something more traditional museum and not just the screens that were in fact turned off. Apart from that, the rest is very good. (Original) Excelentes instalaciones, está recién remodelado y aún hay zonas donde se ve que están trabajando, pero se ve que les está quedando de lujo.

    Me encantó! Se realiza una llamada para reservar de preferencia hay que hacerla de mañana entre 10am porque es muy grande tardamos 5 horas ahí adentró y todo muy seguro los administradores del museo estaban al pendiente respecto el cubre bocas no permiten tomar fotos sin ella, En la tienda de regalos hay mucha variedad encuentras desde llaveros de $80 playeras $200 a botellas de vino de mesa de $500 etc muchos recuerdos 🖤 me compré un llavero porque no me alcanzó para una botella 🥺

    Mi hija ama a los dinos. ❤️ No podíamos dejar de visitar este lugar. Vale muchísimo la pena, es un lugar increíble. Mi familia y yo íbamos con la idea de que solo serían la exhibición y enseñanza acerca de los dinosaurios. Y quedamos fascinados con todo lo que el museo ofrece. Tiene distintas áreas y todas son geniales Trate de poner una foto de cada área. Principalmente la demostración de dinosaurios, el pequeño zoológico que ofrece con animales de los que quizá siempre escuchamos hablar pero que nunca habíamos visto tan cerca y tan reales. El área de suculentas es genial ❤️ hubiera querido comprarlas todas 🥺 los precios son muy accesibles. El área verde que ofrece es increíble 😍 tiene variedad de muchas plantas así como una pequeña cascada que está muy bonita. Y justo ahí el área de murciélagos. La exhibición de animales exóticos que ofrece está increíble, parecen muy reales, desde el pelaje hasta el tamaño real de cada uno. El área de sanitarios súper limpia y el área de comedor de igual manera. El precio de las comidas que ahí venden son super accesibles, así como los refrescos frituras, etc. También hay un espacio donde la gente vende artesanías, recuerditos y la tienda dentro del museo que de verdad en todo te venden precios justos. Ojalá y sigan así. En serio vale muchísimo la pena visitarlo. ❤️ Las medidas de seguridad e higiene con esta pandemia son las mejores. Tienen gel antibacterial en cada una de las entradas a las distintas áreas. Cuando la gente disminuye en cada espacio siempre hay una persona limpiando y eso está genial. Visiten ✨❤️

    Excelente, solo que con la pandemia tiene acceso limitado de personas algunas zonas y hace que se demore en pasar, es mejor visitar en la mañana que hay menos gente, llevarse zapatos cómodos por qué es largo el recorrido

It has a section with typical costumes from various places in the Republic. It gives a little (just a little) pity, like other places in Saltillo, because I think they have potential for much more.

There was a gentleman selling wooden made dinosaurs and you can have your name engraved on it. Bought 3 from him and it is very affordable. Excellent field trip. Highly recommend of you are in Saltillo.
