Fernbank Museum of Natural History


040
  A model of Argentinosaurus, the world’s largest fossilized dinosaur skeleton yet discovered, fills the airy center hall of the museum and reaches almost to the third floor balcony. This dinosaur never lived in Georgia but the “Walk Through Time in Georgia” exhibit features many fossils and models of dinosaurs that did live in Georgia plus detailed explanations of the how sea creatures evolved to live on land and how reptiles evolved to become mammals. Other exhibits explore cultures around the world and the development of pottery by the Native Americans on St. Catherines Island.

  The museum is all accessible.

   After turning onto the museum road look for a right turn into a parking lot. This lot doesn’t get much use and is fine for RV parking. The security guard asked us to park backed up to overhang the grass strip between the rows. He also said that it would be alright to park along the edge of the lot near the back. The parking lot has a slight slope down to the sidewalk which leads to the museum entrance.  Museum
