Be part of it and participate

Our events open up interesting topics and provide different ways to access secrets hidden in nature and its objects.

Together we celebrate a big, cheerful, colourful party. Discover the family secrets of all kinds of animals by dancing, smelling and listening. Follow in the footsteps of baby animals, discover the world of young animals with your peers, slip into the feathers of colourful bird parents or learn to dance like spiders. But brains are also required when the experts share their wealth of knowledge with us. We look forward to an exuberant bug festival with you.

During our guided tour through the special exhibition SEXY – DRIVING FORCE OF LIFE, we show you the role sex plays in reproduction. You will discover that some animals have two sexes, while some have none and others have several. There are animals that can change their sex and animals that can have two sexes at the same time. But they all have one thing in common: they want to reproduce.
