How are a dragonfly's wings structured? Why do fireflies glow? And how does the emerald cockroach wasp hunt?
At the exhibition, you will not only find answers to these questions but also see oversized scale models that allow you to examine every single detail — from the wings to the tiniest anatomical features.
The exhibition is perfect for the whole family and offers a great opportunity to spend time both productively and engagingly.
Discover the world of insects like you've never seen it before.
Please note: Tickets for this exhibition must be purchased as a package together with general museum admission.
A tour guide will help you discover more than you might notice on your own during the permanent exhibition.
