What you'll do
Visit ARTIS-Groote Museum, Amsterdam’s interactive museum of nature where you explore your connection with the natural world.
Discover how humans, animals, plants and microbes collaborate to form one ecosystem through your senses. Touch, smell, listen and observe to experience how we, as humans, are also a part of nature.
Over 1,000 examples, big and small, explore what you have in common with other animals and plants and find out exciting facts you may not have known. Did you know that trees communicate with each other, or that babies move in ways similar to crocodiles?
Immerse yourself at the Groote Museum and uncover thrilling stories of the beauty of the natural world and gain a deeper appreciation of your part in it.
Also visit other unique ARTIS locations: discover the world of microbes at ARTIS Micropia and experience nature up close at ARTIS-Park.
