Summary
| Description |
English: The Natural History Museum at Tring. The Natural History Museum at Tring - formerly the Walter Rothschild Zoological Museum - was constructed in 1889 to a design by William Huckvale (1848-1936) to house the private collection of mounted specimens and library collected by Lionel Walter (2nd Baron) Rothschild. First opened to the public in 1892, the Museum is home to one of the finest collections of stuffed mammals, birds, reptiles and insects in the United Kingdom; its extensive library is available to researchers. The Museum is located in Akeman Street, Tring, and is well worth a visit (at the time of writing, admission is free).
While this view is unappealing to the eye, the building serves its purpose well. See also . . . . 1611688; 1480842; 1480844; 1484417; 1484434; 1483625 |
