Prehistoric past. Awe-inspiring present.

Cincinnati Museum Center cares for a fossil collection totaling more than one million specimens, including the world's largest and finest Late Ordovician fossil collection and the second largest sauropod skull collection in the world. Stretching as far back as 420 million years ago, Cincinnati Museum Center's invertebrate and vertebrate paleontology collections feature the familiar — T. rexTriceratops, Isotelus maximus — and the rare — Torvosaurus, Galeamopus, Daspletosaurus — but all extraordinary.

Cincinnati Museum Center is the fossil headquarters for paleontologists, researchers, amateur fossil hunters and dinosaur enthusiasts from around the world.
