The museum's upper floor contains the “whale gallery” with authentic skeletons of 9 species. The first skeleton assembled was a Sowerby's beaked whale (Mesoplodon bidens) in 1998, followed by the minke whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) and the sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus). Other species added were the humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae), orca (Orcinus orca), Cuvier's beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris), northern bottlenose whale (Hyperoodon ampullatus), and long-finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas). In 2004, the remarkable skeleton of a narwhal (Monodon monoceros) was donated to the museum from Greenland.
