Museum visit
questions and answers

Is there a space where I can use a breast pump?

Yes, please ask a staff member for more information.

Are there any other museums nearby that I can easily visit?

Yes, other museums in Leiden are within easy reach on foot or by bike.

Can I smoke at Naturalis?

Naturalis is a family museum,  so smoking is not allowed anywhere in the museum. This also applies to e-cigarettes. There are outdoor undercover smoking areas away from the entrance. Simply show your ticket to re-enter the museum afterwards.

I’m a teacher and want to scope out the museum first. Can I do this?

Yes, up to two people from your school or institution can do this. Please contact reserveringen@naturalis.nl from your school or institution email address.

I work at an after-school care facility. Can I visit Naturalis with a group of children?

Yes, we recommend making a reservation for this. Please contact reserveringen@naturalis.nl for more information.

Do you have a car park? How much does it cost?

Yes, there is a car park on Mendelweg (€7.50 per day, no hourly rate). Due to ongoing work on our new car park, this space is very limited. Parking can only be paid for at the museum. This also applies to the four parking spaces for people with a disability.
