About
The Poozeum is an extraordinary FREE dinosaur poop-themed museum and gift shop nestled in the heart of Williams, Arizona—the gateway to the Grand Canyon. Our museum is a captivating fusion of a natural history museum, art gallery, and carnival sideshow, offering visitors an unforgettable experience. Explore thousands of authentic fossilized specimens from around the world, including the colossal Barnum—the largest coprolite ever discovered.
Beyond our record-setting coprolite collection, the Poozeum boasts remarkable art pieces like vibrant hand-painted carnival banners, "The Stinker"—a bronze masterpiece depicting a contemplative T. rex on a toilet, a 4-foot-wide titanosaur poop replica, and an original 1830 print of Duria Antiquior—the first artistic representation showing prehistoric animals defecating.
Founded in 2014 by George Frandsen as a virtual coprolite resource center, the Poozeum has become a hub for public research, discoveries, news, and videos. It has earned two Guinness World Records, garnered extensive media coverage, and showcased its coprolite collection to hundreds of thousands of visitors across the USA—all generously donated to museums free of charge.
In 2024, the Poozeum found its permanent home, standing as the sole place globally where the public can view a substantial coprolite collection at once. We invite you to explore the Poozeum, hoping your visit sparks curiosity about coprolites and our prehistoric past, inspiring a deeper dive into this fascinating topic.
