Fantastic museum and fun for a quick trip! Has dinosaurs ! Definitely check out if you are a Yale student (it's free) and consider even if you aren’t!
Incredible old- style museum with dioramas and beautiful displays. Super charming
It’s a Treasure trove of information and display. Definitely recommended self or family especially for the giant dinosaur specimen among others.
Neat museum . Specially the ant and the stones exhibition .
The renovation looks really nice. The integrated technology is excellent.
Founded in 1866, Peabody is one of the oldest natural history museums in the world and its Great Hall of Dinosaurs is a must-see.
Has a wide range of exhibits from dinosaurs to meteorites and is very affordable especially if you have a student ID.
When you’re on the Connecticut shoreline and it rains, head here! Hands-on kid activities , exhibits , and the awesome giant squid that suspended in the main hall make for a really memorable time.
the Peabody Museum was inspired by the first paleontologist in North America... it hosts the dinosaurs made from bones he discovered!
Minerals are not to be missed
Perfect place to bring the family and learn about dinosaurs !
Free individual admission on Thursdays from 2 pm to 5 pm has been extended at least through January.
