Insectarium and Butterfly Pavilion
About us
Welcome to the Insectarium! Philadelphia's only all-bug museum, and the largest insect museum in the nation! We have thousands of live and mounted insects, tons of interactive displays, a movie-room, fun stuff for kids, and a whole lot more!
Since 1992 the Insectarium has been educating adults and children alike, right here in Northeast Philadelphia, about the fascinating world of arthropods. Hundreds of thousands of kids have toured our three floors of museum space, seen countless creepy-crawlies, played in our man-made spider web, and had a great time while learning all about insects in a way that is fun and exciting to their active minds.

Caitlin B. asked:Looking for ideas of where I can take my 6 year-old on this rainy morning. He’s getting sick of the Art Museum, Franklin Institute, and Science Museum. I would strongly prefer not to drive, but I’m open to taking a Lyft if it’s not too far.Nichole M. replied:https://www.facebook.com/philainsects/
