Fernbank Museum of Natural History

Only at Fernbank Museum can you come face-to-face with the world's largest dinosaurs, explore the development of life on Earth through the landscapes of present-day Georgia, connect with cultures from around the globe, engage in a variety of hands-on exhibitions and more! And you won't want to miss stunning rotating special exhibitions or the incredible 5-story experience of an IMAX® film.

Fernbank Museum officially opened its doors on October 5, 1992. As a private 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, it relies on partnerships, volunteers and generous donations from visitors and donors to carry out its mission.
