Guided Tours
The Museum of Nature offers all school classes an exciting and informative access to many areas of animate and inanimate nature.
We offer learning-oriented guidance in the form of guided tours and other learning-oriented activities for children appropriate to their given ages (from pre-school to every higher grade). These tours and activities greatly increase the value of a museum visit.
Specific learning-oriented offers for various different ages / grades can be found under “Learning-Oriented Museum Visits“.

Adults, families, and other groups are equally welcome to take advantage of our various different offers for guided tours.
