Field Museum of Natural History

The Field Museum of Natural History was built in 1893, and in 1905 was named after Field, a man who donated large funds to its construction. The museum occupies an entire block. The museum features an extensive collection of anthropology and ethnography, which includes artifacts from ancient Egypt, the northwest Pacific coast and Tibet.

But the main attraction of the museum is Tyrannosaurus Sue, which lives in the main hall of the museum. It is the largest surviving skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus in the world. Also here you can visit the taxidermic collection of large animals, where African elephants and man-eating lions are waiting for you. The Rotating Planet Hall features a collection of dinosaurs. You can also visit Ancient America, a collection dedicated to American Indians.
