A museum that will appeal to children, thanks to its very varied collections of specimens and its dinosaur skeleton.
Founded in 1998, it exhibits a wide variety of objects and specimens from the university's three research museums: The Harvard University Herbaria, The Museum of Comparative Zoology and The Harvard Mineralogical Museum. You will meet a huge turtle, admire a collection of meteorites, shudder at the skeleton of a 135 million year old dinosaur, contemplate butterflies in a thousand colours..

Le musée en lui-même n'est pas exceptionnel mais il possède une collection magique : les fleurs de verre des Blaschka père et fils, artisans verriers de Dresde (Allemagne). Elles reproduisent avec minutie des fleurs, mais aussi des plantes, feuilles. A noter que les Blaschka ont également fabriqué des modèles d'animaux. Les collections sont aujourd'hui dispersées dans plusieurs musées dans le monde mais Harvard en possède la majeure partie. A voir absolument.
