Urban Wilderness in Bochum: When Urban Nature Takes Over the Mining Site

With Urban Wilderness, the LWL Museum Zeche Hannover presents an outdoor exhibition featuring photographs by Sven Meurs. The exhibition focuses on animals and urban nature, opening up a view of the surprising wilderness right in the urban space.

Urban Nature from a New Perspective

Foxes in the city center, wild boars in Berlin gardens, or kingfishers in Düsseldorf's city park: the imagery of the exhibition combines photography, nature observation, and contemporary communication. This creates an event experience that places exciting contrasts between industrial culture and vibrant urban nature.

A Place with Character

The Zeche Hannover provides the perfect backdrop for this. The historic museum site in Bochum-Hordel connects industrial culture, exhibition experience, and open spaces to create a unique event atmosphere. Those who appreciate the blend of history, architecture, and nature themes will find a strong reason to visit here.
