Urban Wilderness in Bochum: City Nature Meets Industrial Backdrop

The outdoor exhibition Urban Wilderness will showcase fascinating photographs by Sven Meurs starting May 6, 2026, at the outdoor area of the LWL Museum Zeche Hannover. Between the Malakow Tower, green spaces, and industrial heritage, an unusual view of urban nature in the Ruhr area and beyond will unfold.

When City and Nature Meet

Wild boars in Berlin gardens, foxes in downtown Cologne, or kingfishers in Düsseldorf city park: The images show how vibrant urban habitats can be. The exhibition relies on strong motifs, clear imagery, and an atmosphere that invites careful observation.

Photography with an Eye for the Hidden

Sven Meurs has worked for many years as a photojournalist, nature photographer, and urban nature observer. His work combines expertise, observational skills, and a knack for impressive motifs. This shapes the event experience: It's not just about beautiful images, but the question of what animals and plants find their place in the middle of the city.

The Exceptional Location: Zeche Hannover

The LWL Museum Zeche Hannover provides the perfect stage for this exhibition. The industrial heritage site in Bochum combines history, architecture, and open space for a visitor experience with a strong Ruhr area character. The historic surroundings enhance the impact of the outdoor exhibition and create a unique atmosphere for the audience.

For Families, Photo Enthusiasts, and Anyone Wanting to Discover Urban Nature Anew

The exhibition targets visitors who want to experience culture and nature together. Particularly families and nature-interested guests will find an inspiring tour in the open air. Admission to the museum is free, making the visit easy to plan.

Conclusion

Urban Wilderness combines powerful photography, urban nature, and industrial culture for an extraordinary outing in Bochum. Those seeking a lively exhibition experience with surprising perspectives should experience this format live.
