Urban Wilderness in Bochum: Discovering photographs, seeing nature anew

The special exhibition Urban Wilderness brings the surprising wildlife of the city to the LWL-Museum Zeche Hannover. The outdoor exhibition featuring photographs by Sven Meurs shows from May 6, 2026, how close wildlife and urban everyday life are in Bochum.

An exhibition experience in the open air

Between industrial culture and green spaces, a special event atmosphere emerges: photographic motifs, open paths, and the historic grounds of Zeche Hannover create a calm yet exciting event experience. Those interested in nature observation, photography, and unusual city perspectives will find a strong exhibition framework here.

Photography meets industrial culture

The exhibition relies on impressive images and a clear thematic focus. Sven Meurs places animals at the center that are often overlooked in cities, are active at night, or skillfully elude the gaze during the day. It is precisely this mix of close-up views and wonder that makes the presentation captivating.

The right place for curiosity and discovery

The LWL-Museum Zeche Hannover provides the perfect setting. The grounds combine historic architecture, vast outdoor areas, and barrier-free access to central parts of the museum grounds. This results in a visit to the exhibition that is easily planned and also convincing in atmosphere.

Practical information for your visit

The exhibition is designed as an outdoor exhibition and runs from Wednesday, May 6, until Sunday, October 4, 2026. The museum is located at Günnigfelder Straße 251 in Bochum, and entrance to the museum is free. On-site information regarding directions, barrier-free access, and visitor information is available.

Conclusion: Urban Wilderness connects urban nature, photography art, and industrial culture into a calm, exciting reason to visit. Anyone wanting to experience Bochum with open eyes should discover this exhibition live.
