A very nice place to visit on the Univ of Colorado campus, right near the bookstore. Best place to park is the Euclid parking garage - just a couple minute walk to the museum. The museum has a great set of galleries, each with a focused science or natural history topic. Our favorite was the main floor fossil gallery with some very unique specimens. A great place for young kids also. And free!

Cool museum and free! It's small but there is an impressive amount of dinosaur fossils that are cool and hands on stuff for kids to do. There is no parking directly by the museum so you have to park in the nearby neighborhood to access the museum but it's not a big deal.
