Grant Museum of Zoology

The Grant Museum of Zoology at University College London is the last surviving university zoological museum in the capital, packed with skeletons, preserved specimens and taxidermy across a single richly atmospheric room. Founded in 1828 as a teaching collection, it displays around sixty-eight thousand specimens including the bones of extinct animals such as the quagga and the dodo. A celebrated jar of preserved moles draws curious visitors. Its dense Victorian cabinets delight those interested in natural history.
