Wrong working hours. We came on Wednesday and security woman closed the doors in front of us at 12:30.

Pretty nice Museum, a bit hidden tough. A lot to see and learn. Definitely recommend it

I loved the museum

This is a nice small museum laid out over three floors. It's broadly made up of geology, human evolution and elephant evolution with spatterings of fossils including dinosaurs. I spent around an hour and 30 mins going round it. Most signs are in Italian so I used a translation app. Worth a visit.

A fun little museum for kids, worth seeing for the elephant exhibit which is really relevant to Sicily!

A CHILDHOOD HOBY REBORN.

Interesting! Stuff was very kind.

Very interesting

Very nice museum, hosting the skeleton of the Sicilian dwarf elephants

Very interesting little geological museum. It’s a 3 floor museum ordered chronologically, starting from the dynosaure period (Trias, Jurasic, Cretacae), prehistorical period, and finaly the anthreposcene. Some artifacts are very nice, specially the stones and fossils. It seems that this museum haven’t changed since the middle of the XX century.

Some very interesting specimens but almost no information in English and looks like nothing has been updated since a few decades. It's worth a visit for the 12500 year old Sicilian skeleton and prehistoric elephant

Unfortunately didn’t make it past the front door! Walked in to look at the ticket prices and what was include. Next thing we know the staff started yelling at us to buy ticket and the other came running out and stood infront of us to make sure we didn’t enter with out paying and made us feel really uncomfortable like we were doing something wrong. We tried to ask questions but unfortunately neither person spoke English and our Italian was very limited. We decide to leave because how unwelcome we felt.

The museum is small compared to the ones you can find in big cities however they did a great job explaining and presenting the information.

My children enjoyed this museum. People are kind and clearly explain fossils and prehistoric rests. Children can even interact by reproducing fossils.

Worth visiting, very informative

Very interesting collection! Museology a bit old fashion. Great fossils.

The collection of the museum is of great quality, it includes a lot of holotypes (unique specimens on which new fossil species have been established). However the exhibition furniture is very outdated and poorly maintained. There are also a lot of specimens that come from outside Sicily. This is ok, because they portray the same epoch or environment, but it is not explicit in the narrative of the exhibition, only when you read the small identification plates of each fossil does it become clear. The first section about the origins of Sicily and it's vulcans is also very informative. The exhibition area is divided into three floors. Among the exhibits there is a gypsum crystal that contains a drop of water from the Mediterranean 6 million years ago and the oldest human skeleton ever found in Sicily, from the Upper Paleolithic.
