Cabinet

[the cabinet] The Cabinet is the 'period room' of the museum, showing what it looked like 80 years ago. Old showcases, old objects from all over the world and an atmosphere of a good glass of wine and big cigars.

The Cabinet is just the place for a brief reflection on the changing views on what constitutes a natural history museum. It is also a little like a curiosity shop.
