The
Museum Koenig Bonn, formerly
Zoological Research Museum Alexander Koenig (German: ''Zoologisches Forschungsmuseum Alexander Koenig'', abbreviated ZFMK), is a
natural history museum and
zoological research institution in
Bonn, Germany. The museum is named after
Alexander Koenig, who donated his collection of specimens to the institution. The museum was opened in 1934 and forms, since 2001, the ''Leibniz Institute for the Analysis of Biodiversity Change,'' abbreviated ''LIB,'' together with the ''Museum of Nature Hamburg''. The LIB is affiliated with the
Leibniz Association.
On 1 September 1948 the museum saw the opening of the
Parlamentarischer Rat, the organ to create the German constitution. The actual proceedings happened in the nearby Pädagogische Akademie, the later
Bundeshaus.
