The Schiele Museum of Natural History offers a chance for adults and families to discover ,touch, see,hear and learn about the natural world in their own backyard of Gastonia's, North Carolina.
Gastonia Residents, Museum Members, and children under 3 admitted FREE!!
They offer a state of the art with public viewing available. The kids love it . Just be ready for the 100 questions after the show.
The Museum offers exhibits that change often. Some of the exhibits have a small cost which is alway worth it.
Trail for All Seasons is the nature trail beside the Museum building. They often have sheep, pigs and silly chickens around. In growing season they often start a herb garden to enjoy. The lemon grass is wonderful to pinch off a little.
The indian village is not open much so take a peek in and tell a story to the little one as you walk around to the pond. Once at the pond don't miss the fish, tadpoles and turtles.
there is so much to enjoy, you will find a favorite reason to keep coming back. We love the nature walk the best. It is the background for all our Christmas pictures.
You'll have Fun!!
