Spend a night at the museum and roam the rooms with your flashlight? That sounds just like a movie! Exactly, except that the animals don't come alive here. Still, it is a special experience to roll out your sleeping bag under the whale skeleton - unforgettable impressions will be guaranteed. We offer this special tickle exclusively to children accompanied by adults. An adult can take a maximum of three children with them.
Special prices for members of the 'Verein Freunde des Naturhistorischen Museums Basel' and for owners of the 'Familienpass'.
