Mineralogical Collection
Collection
The Museum of Nature - Mineralogy’s collection comprises around 90,000 objects, making it one of the largest of its kind in Germany. It also previously belonged to the Hamburg Museum of Natural History. The Museum’s extensive stock of reference collections forms the basis for training and research in the earth sciences. Its collection of meteorites—some 1,000 specimens from outer space, including several from the Moon and Mars—is of particular scientific value.
