Overview

The Haus der Natur Salzburg or the Museum of Natural History and Technology in Salzburg is one of the top museums in the whole of Europe and is a great attraction for families. This extensive natural history museum has so much to do and see, thus making it ideal for young and old visitors. Located in the Salzburg's Old Town next to the Salzach River, this museum features a variety of exhibits on nature, as well as an aquarium that is known to be one of the most attractive in Central Europe, a reptile zoo, a Science Center and much more, all under one roof. Numerous exhibits found here are also incredibly interactive and encourage visitors to participate in some way or the other. If lucky, visitors may even get the chance to catch a shark and piranha feeding.

Prayer Facilities

Finding prayer facilities at the Museum of Natural History and Technology will not be possible. Muslim visitors will therefore have to make use of the facilities offered at one of the few mosques in the city. Some of Salzburg's prominent mosques include the Salzburg Moschee, the Islamic Cultural Association in Salzburg, Krems Moschee and Türkischer Kulturverein Selimiye.

Halal Food

The 'Stadtcafe' is a café-bar-bistro at the Museum of Natural History and Technology. While visitors will be able to find a variety of snacks and drinks here, Muslim visitors will not be able to find any Halal certified food items. There is however sure to be a selection of suitable vegetarian and seafood dishes. The city of Salzburg is also home to quite a number of Halal restaurants.
