Fossils and crystals

Fossils, archives of life: The systematic paleontology collection comprises fossils from all the major geological subdivisions of the past. Some remarkable pieces are on display at the Palais de Rumine, including the dodo, the mammoth from Le Brassus, the ichthyosaur from Holzmaden and the giant fossil palms from northern Italy, as well as the "Valais giant".
Crystals aplenty:
Sparkling and shimmering, minerals with their abundance of shapes and colors have always fascinated the human eye.
A billion years of regional geology in 15 metres of showcases
