Officially founded in the year 1832, the Naturhistorisches Museum in the city of Bern happens to be one of the most sought after destinations for travellers and tourists to visit in a country like Switzerland. The museum covers a vast area of 5100 square meters which is solely exhibition space. The museum is also internationally renowned thanks to its various historical dioramas. It was in the year 1936 that it moved into a new building in Bernastrasse and it was this building that was deemed an excellent example of the "Neue Sachlichkeit" style of architecture. The building was extended in 1998. One of the most famous displays is Barry, the remarkable rescue dog. Apart from this, the NMBE is famous for housing the giant Planggenstock crystals as well. If that was not enough then they also exhibit some outstanding contemporary displays such as the prize-winning exhibition about life and death, "c’est la vie". What might fascinate a person is knowing that the museum's collection actually contains around 4 million objects.
