Lonely Planet review for Musée Redpath

A Victorian spirit of discovery pervades this old natural history museum, though you won’t find anything more gruesome than stuffed animals from the Laurentians hinterland. The Redpath Museum houses a large variety of specimens, including a dinosaur skeleton and seashells donated from around the world. A highlight is the 3rd-floor Ethnology Gallery, which traces the beginnings of human civilization. It includes Egyptian mummies, shrunken heads and artifacts from ancient Mediterranean, African and East Asian communities. In winter it’s also open Friday.
