Special exhibition from 11 June 2024 to the end of June 2027
The bird collection has to be partially relocated due to renovation. The Museum of Natural History has taken this as an opportunity for a one-off special exhibition that focuses on the historical bird specimens and the suggestions of visitors.

The collection room with the historical bird specimens is currently being renovated in the future plan. For the approximately 11,500 specimens on display, this meant: please move out temporarily!
For this purpose, all specimens were cleaned, photographed and packed in transport boxes. Instead of storing the boxes behind closed doors, the museum uses them as an element of the exhibition architecture.
In the special exhibition ZUGvögel, visitors can explore this part of the collection for the first time. But that's not all: for ZUGvögel we spoke to more than 350 people. Their questions, perspectives and associations form the basis for an exhibition that is as colorful and diverse as the bird world itself.
