A New MUSEUM OF NATURE FOR HAMBURG

With the new Natural History Museum EVOLUTIONEUM, the City of Hamburg and the Leibniz Association are closing a gap in Hamburg’s museum landscape. With its central, attractive location in HafenCity, the new museum is intended to tie in with the history and charisma of the important NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM, which was destroyed during the Second World War. As a centre for biodiversity and evolution research as well as a forum for innovative educational and event programmes, it is to become a beacon for Hamburg as a science location with its valuable collections.
