Access to the Bone Cellar (Knochen Keller)

Building work connected with the refurbishment of parts of the permanent 
exhibition in the museum means that the bone cellar (knochen keller) which 
houses much of the Tendaguru Dinosaur material, other dinosaur remains from 
Germany and large bones from the fossil mammal collection, must be closed 
immediately and will not be accessible until the start of 2006 at the earliest.

Please note that this does not affect the main vertebrate collections 
containing most of the fish, amphibian, some reptile, bird and mammal material, 
which is located in a different part of the museum.

Further information regarding access to the vertebrate collections can be 
obtained from the curators:

Wolf-Dieter Heinrich, Chief Curator Fossil Vertebrates 
(dieter.heinrich@museum.hu-berlin.de).
