News The original fossils of Lucy and Selam are on display for the first time in Europe in the exhibition People and Their Ancestors at the National Museum of the Czech Republic From August 25 to October 23, 2025, visitors to the National Museum of the Czech Republic will have a unique opportunity to see some of the most valuable and oldest paleoanthropological exhibits in the world. For the first time in history, the original fossils of the iconic human ancestors Lucy and Selam are on display in Europe. Until now, the public has only been able to see the original Lucy fossil outside Ethiopia once, during a six-year tour of the United States between 2007 and 2013. The original Selam fossil was officially unveiled only at the National Museum of Ethiopia in Addis Ababa in 2006 when the new discovery was announced. This is also the first and only opportunity to see these unique fossils together in one place, at the beginning of the exhibition People and Their Ancestors in the Historical Building of the National Museum of the Czech Republic.
