This natural science museum could not have a more suitable location than within the wooded Parque San Martin. In conjunction with the National University of Salta since 1972, the goal of the museum is not only to preserve and exhibit information, but to conduct research as well.

There are also rooms devoted to insects, birds, geology and dioramas of the region.
