Museum in Berlin

[Abstraktum]

So, it's me again with another Museum. This time from Berlin / Germany, visited on 14 August 2018  

And Berlin is all about the BIG guys. 

 

Let's go:

 

Giraffatitan brancai (it's still labeled in the museum as Brachiosaurus brancai)

The tallest mouted skelleton in the world (43 ft 6 in)

 

Diplodocus carnegii

 

Dicraeosaurus hansemanni

 

Kentrosaurus aethiopicus

 

 

Tyrannosaurus Rex

Mounted replika skull. The real skull is in a seperate showcase, because it's too heavy (like with Sue)

 

 

Elaphrosaurus bambergi

 

Dysalotosaurus lettowvorbecki

 

Allosaurus fragilis

I think that is a very interesting idea with the real head. It gives a better understanding what these creatures looked like. 

 

 

Archaeopteryx lithographica (yes thats the real one right there)

 

Dracorex hogwartsia

 

Rhamphorhynchus muensteri

 

Anyone needs a Tyrannosaurus Rex tooth? You can buy one at the museum for 2700 $  

 

And lots of fish

Awesome Museum, been there twice and it looks as great as I remember. When I was there I remember there being a Spinosaurus exhibition. I’m especially fond of the Hybodus shark fossil out of the fish. The mineral exhibition was also very cool.

Yes the Spinosaurus exhibition was just for limited time back than. Same with Tyrannosaurus Rex exhibition now. So hurry up guys if you want to see it  At least until the end of the year the Tyrannosaurus Rex will stay there. Maybe longer.

What an incredible museum! Thanks for taking us along.  Seeing the original Archaeopteryx must be a little like seeing the original Mona Lisa at the Louvre, and must have something of an "aura" like feeling when in the presence of such an iconic fossil. 

[Abstraktum]

Yes it really was. Very very impressive to see such an iconic fossil.  You can see on the pictures that you can reach out and touch most of the fossils if you want to. 

But the Archaeopteryx ist the only fossil that is in a seperate room covered by glas. No way to touch it. It's like "Behold,  the mighty Archaeopteryx is here"

Incredible museum! 

What huge floorspace and height to be able to display so many dinosaurs like that. 

Amazing and thanks for sharing.
