The museum's main exhibition hall

The Chulalongkorn University Museum of Natural History is operated by the university's Faculty of Science. It was founded in 1954, and is currently housed in the Biology Building at the university's main campus in Bangkok. The museum features exhibits of various (mainly zoological) organisms, including mounts of the endangered White-eyed River Martin (Princess Sirindhorn bird). The majority of the museum's exhibits are housed in its main hall, with rooms dedicated Thai turtles and softshells, insects and land snails.

The museum publishes the Natural History Journal of Chulalongkorn University, and has been a partner of the Smithsonian Institution Libraries since 1976.[1]
