Museum · 2 h 30 · The Netherlands' natural history museum, with the tyrannosaur Trix and the Ice Age. €18 from age 4; free up to 3.

Naturalis is the national natural history museum and one of the best plans in Leiden with children. Its star is Trix, a real Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton, in the dinosaur gallery, but there is much more: the Ice Age in the Netherlands, life on Earth, insects, minerals and rooms for touching.
Tickets and how to get there
Admission costs €18 from age 4; under-4s do not pay. The Rexperience is closed for the moment because of a technical problem, but Trix is still in her room. It is ten minutes on foot from Leiden Centraal, on the north side of the station. By car, you can only park at the P+R Naturalis, for €25 a day.
