Childhood dreams coming true: dinosaurs at a conference!
Having an amazing time at the IASS conference at @lmumuenchen.bsky.social, enjoying fascinating papers on turning points in Nordic literature and culture. #ScandinavianStudies #Skandinavistik
Dinosaur skeletons displayed in a grand, arched museum hall with two levels. A large flying reptile skeleton is suspended from the ceiling, while other fossils stand on the floor below.

Die aktuelle Ausstellung führt durch mehrere hundert Jahre dänische Seefahrtsgeschichte und bis auf den Grund der Ostsee zu fast vergessenen Wracks.
