In 1626, by order of Louis XIII, the Royal Garden of Medicinal Plants was created, which became the National Museum of Natural History in 1793. The museum is dedicated to nature and its relationship with the human race. This work pays tribute to this institution, and especially to the treasures preserved there: stones from the Mineralogy gallery, diplodocus and fossils from the Palaeontology gallery, birds, butterflies, the Great Gallery of Evolution and panels from the National Herbarium.
