UNIVERSITEITSMUSEUM

This museum (which exists since 1934) hosts temporary exhibitions and presents a collection of scientific instruments, old books, engravings, paintings. A modern building was added to the museum several years ago. It is a museum of man, nature and science, on the modest but serious scale of the city of Groningen and its university. It is possible to take part in guided tours, very instructive. The collections cover 4 centuries of scientific history. It is a museum to be done in passing.
