About Us

The Petrified Creatures Museum of Natural History was established in 1934. It is one of the oldest museums in New York State and is chartered by the New York State Board of Regents as an "Educational Museum of Science and Nature".

The Petrified Creatures Museum of Natural History is a hands-on discovery center where you can actually learn about fossils, then dig for fossils and keep what you find FREE. All this while roaming through a nature path filled with life sized DINOSAUR statues.

We offer many mail order specials and special school and group rates are available with advanced notice School Groups.
