Cabinet of Curiosities at the University of Coimbra in Coimbra, Portugal
With no explanatory captions to be found, the Cabinet of Curiosities at the Science Museum of the University of Coimbra artfully rearranges a 700-year-old museum collection. Inspired by 18th-century curiosity cabinets, the display includes taxidermy (from monkeys and birds to manatees), natural history specimens preserved in jars, minerals, cultural artifacts, rare skeletons, and a stuffed donkey with six legs. Few museums worldwide would have such an extensive collection to draw from—the items on display represent less than 1 percent of the museum's collection—and not many science museum displays are designed purely to invoke wonder.
