BYU Museum of Paleontology displays dinosaur skeletons and other fossils beside the university's football stadium in Provo.
The galleries introduce ancient animals and the work of collecting and studying their remains. A research collection supports the public displays, connecting a short museum visit with the university's geological sciences program.
The museum currently advertises free admission on weekdays; check its schedule before making a special trip. Use the North Canyon Road entrance and review campus parking instructions, particularly around stadium events. Organized visits should be arranged ahead, and visitors should follow posted rules around fragile fossil displays.
