Natural History Museum

As a child the impact of seeing a hulking brachiosaurus skeleton filling the entire lobby of a Natural History Museum is impossible to beat. Simply awesome! Treat your little ones to day out they won't forget by visiting Berlin's very own Natural History Museum (Museum fuer Naturkunde) in Mitte. As well as the aforementioned vegetarian brute, there's plenty more 'extinctiorsauri' to check out, including the rather impressive remains of a giant armadillo. Throw in some 20th century dioramas, a plethora of fossils and Europe's third largest collections of meteorites and it's safe to say that Palaeontology hasn't been this sexy since Friends went off air.

Definitely comparable to the NHM in London, a wonderful way to spend a day.
