Short guided tour: Hear interesting facts about the Jasmund National Park and the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Ancient Beech Forests of Germany". Fossils you can touch and answers to your questions about the national park are provided during the approx. 30-minute short tour by an expert guide.
Special exhibition: The special exhibition in the centre's chalk room changes every year to match the theme of the year. In 2024, everything revolves around Romanticism in the Stubbenkammer to mark the 250th birthday of Caspar David Friedrich. The "Habitat. Chalk" will take centre stage from February 2025 with nature photographs.
Hikes, vacation programs and more: Keep an eye on the calendar of events - during the vacation periods and on special public holidays, you can look forward to additional hikes, programs and events for young and old.
