About

Using the university’s wonderful Cruickshank Botanic Garden and fantastic Zoology Museum the centre aims to inspire everyone in the living environment.

Our hands-on education room also lets visitors see nature in close-up. Come and meet the geckos, the gorgeous fire salamanders and handle anything from our stuffed animal collection to huge skulls, snake skins and even whale bones.

Although originally founded by Conoco (U.K.) Limited the centre is now fully supported by the University of Aberdeen.
