    A good museum with a lot of information to know about canton of Arguvie. Nice to go with the children for couple of hours espicaly when it's cold or rain. Childern will learn more about nature and there are some activities at the top floor. A small museum unfortunately. Needs to pay more attention to add one language more either French or English since all is written in German.

    It's a very informative museum with lots to see, on 3 floors. I really like the combination of living animals and the other animals, as well as the decor they've created. The giant grasshopper is really dope! A well deserved place to visit in Aarau.

    This natural museum is very much child oriented: take your little one there, they'll have a blast!

    Cool museum about the fauna and flora in the region of aargau, as well as a small dinosaur/stone age exhibition, a large plaster model of the region, and a non-permanent exhibition which was about world happiness when I visited. A great place to bring your kids!

    It's a secret gem for the family afternoon on a rainy day in Aarau. There is enough animals to talk about with your kids.

    A lovely way to kill an hour or two with the children. Located in the centre of the city of Aarau, there is ample parking nearby. The Naturama is spread over several floors with different habitats and time periods on each floor. On the top floor there's a play area where the children can actively participate in several events. My only complaint about this otherwise wonderful place is that there are very few labels informing the visitor what they are actually looking at. My little one was asking about the skulls on display but none of them had any labels attached at all. Several other exhibits do not have labels either. Apart from that, I can recommend it

👍👍 Неповторимые улочки Старого города Арау несомненно заслуживают посещения. Городок расположен в 20 минутах езды на поезде из Цюриха. В пяти минутах ходьбы от вокзала располагается Старый город. Его характерной особенностью являются карнизы крыш, разукрашенные снизу разными орнаментами и картинами. Яв...
