Haus der Natur Cismar, Natural history museum in Cismar, Germany
Haus der Natur Cismar is a natural history museum in the Cismar area with substantial exhibition rooms. The space displays thousands of specimens including minerals, fossils, preserved animals, insects, and corals from different habitats.
The museum opened in 1979 and moved to the former Lindenhof building in 1995, resulting in a major expansion of space. The institution collaborates with researchers who have been studying mollusks for over 150 years.
The collection displays mollusks from across the globe and draws researchers interested in studying these creatures. Visitors can see why these often-overlooked animals matter to understanding the natural world.
Visitors can observe through glass doors how staff members sort and identify expedition findings in the office and library areas. This setup allows you to see natural researchers at work directly.
The collection holds over 5000 mollusk species ranging from sand-grain sizes up to one meter in length. This makes it Germany's largest shell exhibition.
