Urban Wilderness in Bochum: City Nature Meets Industrial Culture
With Urban Wilderness, the LWL Museum Zeche Hannover opens up a surprising side of the city: Wild animals, urban nature and urban habitats meet on the historic outdoor grounds in Bochum. The outdoor exhibition featuring photographs by Sven Meurs combines the experience of an exhibition, industrial culture, and nature observation into a striking tour.
A Walk Between Malakow Tower and Wilderness
As soon as you enter the grounds, you immediately feel the unique event atmosphere: old industrial architecture, open paths, and photographs that tell the everyday life of the city anew with animal presence. The audience's mood is likely to be calm, curious, and eager to discover - ideal for visitors looking for culture and nature in an event experience.
Photography with an Eye for the Unexpected
The images show wild animals in urban spaces and make visible how close nature and the big city are to each other. This is precisely where the strength of the exhibition lies: it works with a clear visual language, strong spatial impact, and a thematic arc suitable for families, culture enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the environment, urban space, and photojournalism. The interplay between the outdoor exhibition and the monument setting creates a unique rhythm that keeps the tour lively.
For Families, Explorers, and Ruhr Area Fans
With its open presentation, the exhibition fits well into the museum's everyday life on weekends and during holiday periods. The grounds of Zeche Hannover provide the perfect backdrop: historic, spacious, and easily combined with a visit on-site. Those who enjoy stories about urban development, habitats and industrial culture will find a strong reason to take a trip to Bochum here.
What Visitors Can Expect On-Site
The exhibition is designed as an outdoor offering and combines art, natural perception, and informative storytelling. Admission is free, making the visit particularly accessible. Due to its location on the museum grounds, the tour can be easily combined with additional impressions from the LWL Museum Zeche Hannover.
