Umwelt Arena

Rainy Days are here and although we want to curl up with a good book, we all know the grey skies and chilly weather won’t stop our little mini me from saying “where to momma??” as they hop, skip and bounce around the house with energy we only dream of having!

Umwelt Arena is highly recommend as a family fun day out.  You can easily spend 3 – 4 hours learning, playing and (most importantly) escaping the inevitable cold weather.

The Umwelt Arena

The Umwelt Arena is a family-friendly adventure teaching real-life sustainability lessons through fun, interactive programming. It focuses on the areas of nature and life, energy and mobility, construction and modernization and renewable energy.

To give all these big people “problems” a twist of little people fun, the Museum provides children with a clipboard, pen and checklist directing them towards kid friendly stations marked by an oversized green & orange numbered display stand and educational question, giving it a bit of a scavenger hunt feel.

The various stations offer educational, interactive displays with the intent to teach through play. Siblings can challenge one another to an energy-producing bike race, direct solar cars around a mini track and hop in & out of e-cars.

Descriptions are in German, but there’s some English narrated tutorials and most staff speak English so definitely don’t be shy to ask for an explanation.
