A butterfly forest. Last few days to enjoy the event
Watch chrysalises transform into colourful butterflies and experience their first flight.
From 26 March to 19 May, the museum’s tropical mountain greenhouse becomes the nest of thousands of lepidoptera.
Each week, over 300 chrysalises will be placed in special ‘nurseries‘, a protected environment where it will be possible to watch them hatch.
The adult butterflies will fly freely in the greenhouse, feeding on flowering plants and ripe fruit.
