Musuem for natural sciences BRUSSELS-CITY in BRUSSELS / BELGIUM description:The museum for Nature sciences has many times interresting exhibitions. You can find several exhibitions amongst them the most famous dinosaurs from Belgium, also the evolution of the man, an exhibition with minerals...There is a good website,where you can find all information needed.
The architecture of this front facade is remarquable. The imposant Iguanodons and the squeleton of the man of Spy are located in the great room in Art Nouveau style (still influenced by the eclectism that was in vogue under King Leopold II), with delicate wrought iron. The double spiral staircase has disappeared.
Societies can rent this location for receptions.
At this moment (summer 2004) there could be a restauration going on(sic Jeroen Vlenderickx). Thereby the double spiral staircase should disappear.
