Why Visit the Paleontological Museum?

The Egidio Feruglio Paleontological Museum, known as the MEF, is one of the main tourist attractions in Trelew, Chubut province. Many large dinosaur fossils have been discovered in the area, and most are exhibited here, making it one of the best museums in South America.
