Klimahaus Bremerhaven

The Klimahaus Bremerhaven is a natural science museum in Bremerhaven, Germany, presenting climate zones of the Earth on a simulated journey along the eighth longitude. The exhibition leads through multiple levels with controlled temperature, humidity, and lighting, so visitors experience tropical heat, desert dryness, and polar cold in sequence.

The museum opened in 2009 as part of a project to redevelop the waterfront of Bremerhaven. The construction linked science communication with tourism and helped revive the harbor district after the decline of the shipyard industry.

The name refers to climate and house, and visitors move through reconstructed habitats along the eighth longitude, where they see housing forms and everyday objects from different regions. In the exhibition rooms, films and objects show how people in Sardinia, Niger, or Alaska live and work with their environment.

The tour takes about two to three hours and leads through zones with large temperature differences, so a light jacket and comfortable shoes are useful. At the entrance there are lockers for coats and bags that are not needed during the visit.

In one section there is an aquarium with live corals from the South Pacific that is maintained daily. In another room, visitors can see real research equipment from an Antarctic station that was brought here after use.
