Spix-Museum
Höchstadt an der Aisch, Bayern
The birthplace of naturalist Johann Baptist von Spix in Höchstadt's old town tells how a bathkeeper's son became the founder of the Zoologische Staatssammlung in Munich. The focus is his life and his 1817–1820 journey to Brazil, from which he brought back valuable zoological, botanical and ethnological specimens. The museum opened in 2004 and is run by volunteers.
