Mineralogical Museum and its collection
Source
The Mineralogical Museum of the Philipps University in Marburg is home to an extensive collection of geological specimens that have been gathered since the late 18th century. The collection currently boasts 60,000 minerals, 55,000 rock samples, 15,000 gemstone raw samples, and 150 meteorites. This makes it a significant destination for those interested in geology and mineralogy.
Public Exhibitions
Since 1977, the museum has made 3,000 objects from its complete collection accessible to the public in three large exhibition rooms. The first room features a dark chamber for viewing fluorescent minerals. The second room showcases the 150 most significant pieces from the collection of pharmacist Gerhard Schweinsfurth. The third room is dedicated to the permanent exhibition of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
