History and natural science museums Chartres

It is not the Museum of the Parisian Jardin des Plantes, far from it… but nevertheless, this small museum offers you to discover more than 200 specimens of birds and small mammals, as well as important collections of geology and prehistory, not to mention insects from all over the world. Thus, they are discussed during the tour and showcases of zoology, entomology, geology, prehistory, paleontology (with discoveries from excavations in Saint-Prest) and finally, mineralogy. Often, thematic conferences open to the public are organized on Tuesday evening. Finally, the Museum makes its collections available to researchers who request it.
