Dinosaur Museum
Britain's original Dinosaur Museum is a treat, especially for children. The museum combines life-sized reconstructions of dinosaurs with fossils and skeletons to create an exciting hands-on experience. Cinematic displays tell the story of the giant prehistoric animals and their enthralling world millions of years ago. Life-size dinosaur reconstructions - including Tyrannosaurus rex, Stegosaurus and Triceratops - beg to be touched by by little hands - that´s encouraged. The Museum is in the heart of Dorchester - a gateway town for the Jurassic Coast. The museum was heralded as one of Britain's ten best child friendly museums, by the Daily telegraph in 2006.
