From 5,000 year old mummies to 100+ foot long dinosaur skeletons, the Field Museum of Natural History seems to have it all within its monstrous 350,000 square feet.

What started in 1893 as a 65,000 item exhibit known as the World’s Columbian Exposition has grown to become 40+ Million artifacts at the Field Museum of Natural History. The museum has a quest “to learn as much as we can about this incredible planet” and has been doing so at its current location since 1920.
