“Grigore Antipa” National Museum of Natural History is one of the oldest research institutions in the field of biodiversity and public education.

Dino Parc Râșnov is the biggest dinosaur theme park in Eastern Europe, an unique and special project in Romania. Constantly we are considering to improve, and this year we developed a new area in our park with dinosaurs and prehistoric animal that lived on our territory, in Hațeg more specifically. It has a lot of particularities, but the most important are the 100 dinosaurs. Each one of them has a scientific certificate, according to the latest palaeontologists’ findings. The dinosaurs are reproduced in natural size, on a 1 to 1 scale. They are made of fibreglass and a special resin, having a guarantee for 50 years. Another very important attraction in our park is Seismosaurus, the biggest dinosaur that ever lived on planet Earth and it has 45 meters long. More than that, there is a chronological route to visit them, with sounds, lights and interactive panels with very interesting information regarding dinosaur’s life and behaviour.
