Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The building is great and provides a unique setting. No creaky wooden floor boards or confusing layouts in this natural history museum. The exhibits are very good, particularly the geology and stones. There are no large dinosaurs skeletons here unfortunately and there's not enough toilets, especially for a modern building. Diagonal mall is very close and a good place to eat before or after. We spent 90 minutes at the museum.

What an interesting visit, also the kids liked it. There was a great collection of animals, that was the best part for me. The atmosphere of the museum was exciting with the dark walls. The outer architecture of the building was interesting (extremely modern), but the area wasn't that interesting. But that's a side issue. If you want to save a few euros, you could visit the place on sunday after three, with free entry. But in any case the entrance fee is not expensive.
The other services was not that good for my opinion. There should be more toilets and the shop was not that good as in some other museums have.

This is one of the best natural history museums I have visited. The building itself is amazing, but the displays are well-organized, well-labeled, well-lit, and very educational. The permanent exhibit shows the evolution of the world and life in the world, uses exhibits focused on themes like movement, skeletons, similarities of species, and the like--rather than showing all primates together and all birds together. The collection shown isn't huge, but it is well displayed. The special exhibit on primates was extremely good, intended to show the variety of primates, how they live, and what threats they face, to encourage people to care about preservation.

As a Science geek, I made a point to see this museum even if it was far from the city center. The building itself was already an attraction to me so I feel like it was worth making time for.
I went there during the free museum hours (3PM onwards on Sundays) and there were only a few people which was nice (for selfish reasons). I started with the temporary exhibit called We are Nature which was essentially a call to care for the Earth.
The main exhibit started with the history of the Earth. There were exhibit on fossils from the time of the dinosaurs, stuffed animals, rocks and minerals, bacterial culture and many more. My favorite were on rocks and minerals, I did not think they could get that colorful. It was hard to see some of the exhibits that were placed on the glass shelves though.

We enjoyed the different exhibitions and learned alot about evolution of the world.
The things you learned as a child coming back. They have interactive videos you can play as well.
Reasonably priced at 10 euros as well.

This is wonderful if you're staying in the Maresme area or close to the Diagonal Mar shopping centre. It is a great natural science museum with some very interesting exhibits. Visited when there was a special exhibition on the most poisonouse animals in the world - with live exhibits. My sons were absolutely captivated. Staff wonderful. Facilities clean and welcoming. Go go go.

If you have any interest in natural sciences this place is well worth a visit. It gives extensive coverage of the evolution of animals and man with lots of hands-on displays and plenty of skeletons. We also found the sections on geology and the formation of the universe extremely well done. The exhibitions are well laid out with English language translations throughout and entrance fee is very modest.
