Urban Wilderness: When Bochum's Museum Becomes a Stage for Urban Nature
The outdoor exhibition Urban Wilderness brings exciting wildlife photography to the LWL-Museum Zeche Hannover in Bochum on August 13, 2026. Photographs by Sven Meurs will be showcased, capturing wildlife and urban nature from a surprisingly close, vibrant perspective.
Urban Wilderness in the Heart of the Ruhr Area
Between industrial culture and open spaces, an exhibition experience unfolds that changes the view of the city. Foxes, wild boars, and other inhabitants of urban habitats are in the spotlight, showing how much nature exists even where it is often overlooked in everyday life.
Photography with a Clear Message
Sven Meurs has been working as a photojournalist, nature photographer, and author for many years. His focus is on urban nature, biodiversity, and the coexistence of humans and animals in urban spaces. The exhibition combines high-quality photography with a strong thematic core: Wonder, Perception, and Rethinking.
A Place with a Special Atmosphere
The Zeche Hannover provides the perfect setting. The former mining site combines history, spaciousness, and an outdoor character. This mixture enhances the mood of the audience and makes the visit a calm yet impressive experience for all who wish to discover art, nature, and industrial culture together.
Practical Information for Your Visit
Admission is free, and access is via the museum grounds at Günnigfelder Straße 251. Those traveling by bus and train can use the Hannoverstraße stop. On-site, there are museum areas, open spaces, picnic opportunities, and good integration into the Zeche Hannover grounds.
Conclusion: Urban Wilderness shows Bochum from its surprisingly natural side. Anyone interested in extraordinary wildlife photography, urban nature, and a relaxed exhibition experience should experience this event live.
