Permanente Exhibition
BiodiverCITY
The city is not just pavements, walls and concrete!
It is often unexpectedly full of animal life and vegetation. Who would have thought that a slowworm could be hiding in a corner of your garden? Have you ever tried to follow a blue-winged grasshopper along the railway verge? Or have you experienced a day in the life of a hedgehog? Even though the city may sometimes appear gloomy and grey, it is full of surprises!
Everywhere in BiodiverCITY, there are specimens, photos, films and interactive installations help to explain what biodiversity in the city entails. Moreover, you can play an active role with the aid of computer simulations and learn what you can do to protect the biodiversity in the city.

Remarkable Elements
Peregrine Falcons
The population decline of the peregrine falcon started in the 1940s and intensified in the 1960s, when the species was thought to be extinct. Today, however, the falcons are back.
Minibeasts
Earthworms, millipedes, pill millipedes, woodlice, springtails, cockchafer larvae, and acarines…The soil is home to a wide variety of species of invertebrates.
City Foxes
Over the last few years, we have been seeing more and more red foxes in the city.
