Exhibition "Guests from the Past"

About exhibition

The exhibition presents a unique collection of material objects of broad scientific and cultural significance — life-size reconstructions of extinct animals and taxidermied specimens of modern species, created with the highest scientific accuracy. The core of the display comprises more than 30 realistic figures, including ancient Devonian fish, the mammal‑like reptile Dimetrodon, Mesozoic dinosaurs and the saber-toothed Smilodon. The exhibits are arranged in strict chronological order from the Paleozoic Era to present-day fauna. The space is complemented by plants from different geological epochs and sound design that creates a fully immersive experience. Special attention is paid to the educational component: each exhibit is accompanied by a detailed scientific description noting characteristics and interesting facts. For young visitors there is an interactive area with paleontological digs and educational games. The exhibition helps form a cohesive scientific picture of the world, broadens horizons and supports the intellectual development of youth. Visiting the exhibition provides a vivid introduction to a natural heritage of global significance and stimulates interest in the study of the natural sciences.
