    Afuera del museo hay una plaza con grandes esculturas de dinosaurios y un pterosaurio colgando. Al interior del museo hay una sala dedicada a la historia de la minería del carbón en la región, también otra con fósiles hallados y su formación, por último una sala dedicada a pueblos originarios y a fauna nativa. Se recorre el lugar en una hora más o menos dependiendo, la entrada es gratuita.

    Beautiful exhibition, nothing to say🥹. The place is big, at the entrance there is always someone who gives you guidance on what you will see, and they even try to ensure that there is always an interactive space in their exhibitions💚 a must in Concepción!!!

  • 5/5 Nicolás Troncoso G. 1 year ago on Google • 35 reviews
    A beautiful place, excellently preserved and well cared for; wide variety of fossils and animals, as well as objects related to the region and also to the Mapuche culture. It has public bathrooms (for women and men), in addition to having a room for children to carry out activities or hold talks.

    (Translated by Google) Excellent museum to visit as a family, has good collections and the interior aesthetics of the place is incredible, the only thing that is missing is to have a person to guide in the museum, the rest nothing to say.

  • 4/5 patricio v. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Entertaining, ideal to go with children, participate in recreational activities and learn about Chilean fauna. The bad thing is that it has a very limited schedule and the route is short, but outside of that a good panorama. (Original) Entretenido, ideal para ir con niños, participar en actividades lúdicas y aprender sobre la fauna chilena. Lo malo es que posee horario muy acotado y el recorrido se hace corto, pero fuera de eso un buen panorama.

  • 5/5 Fabián M. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Although the place is small, the amount of animals (taxidermy) and fossils they have is incredible. Definitely an obligatory stop. The place is very clean and tidy, the bathrooms very well maintained, be careful that you must find parking in the nearby streets since although they have a place to park, it is usually full. Precious: D (Original) Si bien el lugar es pequeño, es increíble la cantidad de animales (taxidermia) y fósiles que tienen. Sin duda una parada obligada. El lugar es muy limpio y ordenado, los baños muy bien mantenidos, ojo que deben encontrar estacionamiento en la calles cercanas ya que Si bien tienen un lugar para aparcar, suele estar lleno. Precioso :D

    El museo es gratis. Me gustó porque tiene un poquito de todo. Hay algunas piezas que fueron removidas para trabajos del museo. La instalación está muy organizada y limpia. El personal del museo es muy cordial y servicial, siempre preocupado que sea una linda experiencia sobretodo para los niños.

    (Translated by Google) Peculiar museum. On the outside it looks like a large house but on the inside it is fantastic, an inevitable tour for visitors to the Plaza Acevedo, as well as for the people who always pass by outside looking at it with a face of uncertainty, they will not regret it. Free entrance (Original) Peculiar museo. Por fuera parece una casona pero por dentro es fantástico, un recorrido infaltable para los visitantes de la Plaza Acevedo, como también para los habitantes que siempre pasan por fuera mirándolo con cara de incertidumbre, no se arrepentirán.

  • 4/5 cruzvi m. 1 year ago on Google
    Bonito lugar. Realizan actividades para niños. No cobraron entrada. Me encantó la estructura de cartón en la que colocaron códigos QR y podías descargar distintos libros(diario de Ana Fran, cuentos infantiles, entre otros). Pienso que podrían mejorar la ruta de acceso a los fosiles ya que cuando los guías explican y hacen demostraciones de las muestras hay mucha gente, y no logras ver y escuchar toda la información. El parque para los niños debe mejorar sus instalaciones, sobre todo el juego con la tirolesa, pues esta en mal estado.

  • 5/5 Rodrigo Nuñez L. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A place to share with the family, entertaining and free culture. It is open from Tuesday to Friday, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Schedules in the photos. In addition to the side is the dinosaur plaza with 5 giant statues, a tyrannosaur, a brontosaurus, pterodactyl and some eggs and some playing. (Original) Un lugar para compartir junto a la familia, cultura entretenida y gratis. Esta abierto de martes a viernes, sábados, domingos y festivos. Horarios en las fotos.

Adicionalmente, había una exposición temporal de excelente nivel.
