Multimar Wattforum, Public aquarium in Tönning, Germany.

The Multimar Wattforum features 36 aquariums containing more than 280 marine species, including dogfish, lobsters, starfish, and sea urchins from the Wadden Sea.

The Multimar Wattforum opened its doors in 1999 as the central visitor center for the Schleswig Holstein Wadden Sea National Park, showcasing local marine life.

The center educates visitors about the North Sea ecosystem through interactive exhibits, experiments, and presentations about the marine environment and conservation efforts.

The facility welcomes visitors daily from April to October between 9:00 and 18:00, and from November to March between 10:00 and 17:00, except December 24th.

The exhibition displays an 18-meter-long sperm whale specimen that was discovered on the Wadden Sea mudflats, alongside a complete minke whale skeleton.

Schleswig-Holstein: historic sites, nature parks, coastal landscapes

Schleswig-Holstein combines historic structures with varied natural landscapes between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The region encompasses castles such as Glücksburg and Plön, medieval monasteries including Cismar and Nütschau, and museums spanning from Viking times to maritime history. Visitors find the Hedeby Viking Museum, Gottorf Castle in Schleswig, and the historic Ratzeburg Cathedral. The natural areas extend from beaches at Pelzerhaken and Rosenfelder Strand to the Lauenburg Lakes Nature Park and moorland at Kaltenhofer Moor. The Geltinger Birk Nature Reserve and wildlife parks at Eekholt and Arche Warder display native flora and fauna. The Kiel Canal, lighthouses at Westerhever and Amrum, and the Multimar Wattforum in Tönning document the importance of the coastal region.
