It is a global project that has been on for more than 10 years that takes place in several regions of Catalonia to create the Museum of the Dinosaurs of the Pyrenees. The philosophy of this project is to return to the territory, in the form of scientific dissemination, the results of the scientific research performed on the fossils of the last dinosaurs that lived in Europe. 

At present, this project is a reality thanks to the participation of the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont as scientific advisor and Museum of Conca Dellà and Dinosfera as exhibition rooms, which complement each other to show different fields of knowledge.

espai Dinosfera (Coll de Nargó)

The exhibition at the espai Dinosfera in Coll de Nargó (Leida) is focused on its main asset equity: the eggs and nests of dinosaurs. The exhibitions revelas the current knowledge on the reproduction of dinosaurs through the research on fossils and, specifically, from fossils recovered in Coll de Nargó, which has the most important deposits of dinosaur eggs in Europe.

Museu de la Conca Dellà (Isona)

The Conca Dellà Museum, which holds the Cretaceous Park, is the scene for an exciting trip to the past. The museum offers the possibility to discover an area that was occupied by the Roman culture in the past and, many years before that, inhabited by the last dinosaurs that lived on the Earth.
