The collection includes more than 70 million botanist exhibitors (6 million plants), zoology (55 million copies of animals, half of them inhabited in a separate country), mineralogy (500 thousand units and minerals) and paleontology (9 million).

The museum is best known for its collection of dinosaur skeletons in the central hall, including the famous diplodocus skeleton, and is also interesting for the mechanical model of a tyrannosaur. In the zoological part is a 30-meter whale. The museum has an interesting collection of meteorites.

The exterior and interior of the museum building are finished with terracotta by the masters of the company Gibbs And Canning Limited from Tamworth. The bricks are decorated with images of plants, animals and fossils. Entrance to the museum is free.
