L'idée de créer à Toulouse un muséum d'histoire naturelle remonte à la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Cependant, il n'est créé qu'en 1808, grâce à la détermination du célèbre naturaliste toulousain, Picot de Lapeyrouse. Ouvert seulement au public en 1865, il a pour vocation « d'assurer la conservation et le classement des collections, accueillir le public et participer à la découverte et à la prospection ». Très vite le muséum toulousain devient un puissant pôle d'attraction scientifique. Entre les deux Guerres mondiales, le muséum s'agrandit et accueille les collections d'ethnographie du musée Saint-Raymond. En 1923, il s'enrichit du fameux fonds Bésaucèle, l'une des plus grandes collections d'oiseaux d'Europe. A partir de 1958, le muséum connaît un premier remodelage qui permettra de constater sa vétusté. Il faudra attendre les années 2000 pour qu'un projet de restructuration se fasse jour. Le muséum a rouvert ses portes en janvier 2008. Après dix ans de fermeture et une refondation architecturale, le bâtiment de 6.000 m² consacre la moitié de sa surface aux expositions.
