Immerse yourself in the marine life of eight million years ago in Western Europe. The exhibition “Primeval Ocean” takes you back in time. It was the era when sperm whales and 18-meter-long giant sharks ruled the seas. What no one could have known back then was that their days were numbered, as the newly emerging baleen whales and dolphins, with their speed and larger brains, would surpass them. Experience how paleontologists dredge fossils from the seabed, prepare them, study them, and give them names. Discover what their millions-of-years-old findings look like and how they reconstruct ancient animals.
