Naturhistorisches

Magazine of the Natural History Museum Vienna



In March 2021 the magazine “Naturhistorisches” will appear for the first time, a relaunch of the NHM magazine “Das Naturhistorische”, which until then had been published as a special section in Universum-Magazin. The redesigned booklet has 24 pages and presents the Natural History Museum to a wide audience from different perspectives four times a year.
