#fürNatur digital Familien und Kinder

As part of #fürNatur digital we are expanding our digital offerings. On this page you find content that is particularly aimed at families and children, from dinosaur masks to Naturblick, our smartphone app for discoveries in the city nature, as well as digital guided tours. Also check out our digital offers for schools and kindergartens.

Digital guided tours

In our Guided Tours, you can join tours through both exhibition and collection of the museum from home. The digital tours make knowledge of our research collection accessible online.

City nature discoveries with Naturblick

Which bird is chirping in the tree? And while you're at it: Which tree is this bird chirping on? With our "Naturblick" app ('nature view' in English) you determine the species of the city nature. You can use image recognition to find out which plant is in front of you and can even record bird sounds, have them assigned by the app and create your own bird sound collection. This is also possible from your own balcony or garden.

Digital research trip with Google Arts & Culture

Also online, you can marvel at our Biodiversity Wall with around 3,000 prepared animal species, discover our research wet collection and stretch your neck until you – at the very top – admire the head of the world's largest mounted dinosaur skeleton. With Google Arts & Culture you visit the Museum für Naturkunde like you do with Google Street View. In addition, Giraffatitan and some preparations from the biodiversity wall come to life via virtual reality.
