Virtual tour: The Cabinet
[picture of 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.
