      Closure check

      Avoid Monday and the listed annual holidays

      The museum closes January 1, Seollal and Chuseok. When Monday is a public holiday, it opens Monday and closes the next weekday.

    3. 03
      Before an activity

      Reserve education separately

      A museum ticket or group admission does not include a dated fossil activity, class or guided programme. Check age, capacity, fee and registration.

    4. Traveler tips

    • Arrive before the 5:00 PM cutoff with enough time for the chronological galleries; final entry is not a recommended arrival time.
    • Check the programme calendar before promising a child a fossil-dig or making activity, and reserve every required participant.
    • Follow gallery photography and touching signs; hands-on displays do not make every fossil or mineral touchable.
    • Search “대구 달성화석박물관” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
    • Hours, admission, closures and programme schedules can change; use the official source before departure.
    • The catalogue coordinate is an approximate centre pin, not turn-by-turn entrance guidance.
