Destination archeology 1798 - Future
November 21 2025 - February 7 2027
The exhibition Destination Archaeology invites visitors to discover how science shapes our understanding of the past. Aboard a time-traveling machine, the public is transported back to the 19th century and journeys through the grand history of archaeology. It approaches ancient civilisations through the eyes of that era and explores the ideas that emerged from them.
