The Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales ((スペイン語:National Museum of Natural Sciences)) is the National Museum of Natural History of Spain. It is situated in the center of Madrid, by the Paseo de la Castellana. It is managed by the Spanish National Research Council. The Museum was created in 1772 by Charles III of Spain as the ''Gabinete Real de Historia Natural'', changing names several times until its current denomination.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.mncn.csic.es/seccion=1177 )〕 The museum originally hosted a collection donated by a Spanish merchant, Pedro F. Dávila. In 1867, some facilities were separated to give birth to other museums (Archeology, Botanic Garden, Zoologic Garden). In 1987 the museum was restructured and grown with funds from two smaller museums. Some of the more relevant components of the Museum collections are: * A ''Megatherium'' brought from Argentina in 1789. * A ''Diplodocus'' donated by Andrew Carnegie to Alfonso XIII of Spain The museum shares a big building, the ''Palacio de Exposiciones de las Artes e Industrias'' with the Industrial Engineering School of the Technical University of Madrid. The research departments of the museum are: *Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology *Evolutionary Ecology *Paleobiology *Vulcanology *Geology ==Gallery== Image:Elefante disecado MCNM.jpg|African Elephant Image:Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (Madrid)-Sala de Historia Natural.jpg|Section of Natural History Diplodocus and other fossils File:Megatherium americanum1.jpg|Section of Natural History Megatherium skeleton Image:Iberomesornis-model.jpg|Section of Natural History Iberomesornis model Image:Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (Madrid)-Gorgonia.jpg|Mediterranean section Gorgonian Image:Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (Madrid)-Architeuthis.jpg|Mediterranean section Giant squid model ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
