The collection - Seismology
The seismometers from the old station are found in two rooms. The heaviest ones have been left in their previous positions. The numbering follows technological evolution from the oldest seismometer, the Rebeur-Ehlert which dates from 1895 and is one of the very first seismometers in the world, to seismometers from the 1950s.
