I have yet to discover a more disappointing and more neglected and archaic museum and if i could give it no stars I would. I see some good reviews here and I can only assume they were done by people not accustomed to decent museums. This museum is in bad shape and this is why:
1. Incredibly unfriendly and unenthusiastic staff (and who can blame them really)
2. The displays (display signs as well as specimen) are disintegrating in many instances. I'm sure the last upgrade must've taken place in the 60s if not earlier.
3. Inaccuracy : to only mention 2- The visual display of Jupiter is shocking. Had I not known that it should be Jupiter I might've mistaken it for a mythical planet from someone's imagination.- The button spider is displayed as the Black Widow.....these two spiders ....although family....are not the same spider at all. Laymen mistakes in a museum.....appalling!

Do not waste time or money on this excuse for a museum. Rather save money and visit the Natural science museum in the Cape....where at least they've made an continuous effort.

Educational outing for the kids. Wheelchair and pram accessible to the main entrance, but not to the first floor.
Parking across the road at the Pretoria Town Hall.
Unfortunately the exhibit looks the same as 25 years ago. An upgrade would be wonderful.

Most of the exhibits show signs of serious neglect. There seems to be an overall lack of maintenance. Whoever's in charge need to pull up their socks. It's embarrassing.

what a nice place to relax, you can easily meditate without anything bothering you. people of different tribe, race, gender and countries find peace here. You can just grab a corner, put on your earphones and relax, I seated here until 8 pm from 12 pm

This hidden gem is so well preserved and should be visited by any school or educational event. Big and small groups are hosted on arrangements and have secured parking around the back. They display animals that have gone extinct and that we don't see every day - go the extra mile with requests and will surprise you surely - thanks!! :)
