Summary/Abstract: The article aims to reveal the importance of the Lithuanian museums of nature as an educational environment and the opportunities for teaching biogeography according to the general education school curriculum in such museums. The choice of Biogeography as the research subject was determined by its unique nature as well as by the need for a non-traditional educational environment. A scientific research was carried out in order to evaluate the internet websites of 32 Lithuanian museums of nature according to the following criteria: the presentation of information on the internet, the characteristics of exhibitions, and the explicitness of the presentation of educational activities.
