Animals in the City

Why do animals settle among the city’s high-rises and honking cars? Have you ever wondered why animals settle among the city’s high-rises and honking cars? Find out in the new exhibition based on Sarah Sheppard’s children’s book, *Animals in the City*. The exhibition is open until 9 January 2028.

Welcome to the concrete jungle

Here, you can step into the book and meet chatty sparrows, foxes on night patrol, tram-riding pigeons, and the city’s cleverest resident—the rat! Discover a world where the proportions are all out of whack, with banana slides and giant fries. Through facts, imagination and humour, you can explore how animals live in the city and learn why the city has become a haven for blackbirds, squirrels, foxes and more unusual visitors.

Many people want to visit the sparrows, foxes and rats in *Animals in the City*. To make sure everyone has a good experience, we admit visitors in smaller groups. You therefore need to book a time for your visit.

Booking a time

Time slots for *Animals in the City* are booked on the same day, directly at the museum. Book your time when you buy your ticket or show your annual pass at the museum. You will then receive a physical ticket to give to the attendant at the exhibition. Visitors are admitted at quarter past each hour, and a visit lasts approximately 45 minutes.
