Wild Basel Country. On the Trail of Flora and Fauna

There's a blossoming, growing, crawling and flying - and we humans are in the midst of it. Nature is everywhere. Whether in the service lane or in dead wood - life often seeks out curious paths.

The new permanent exhibition in the Museum.BL. deals with the diversity of life and takes visitors on a voyage of discovery to the natural riches of Basel Country. It shows an amazing diversity of species - from the grass snake and the honey buzzard to the Eurasian lynx. Both adults and children can enjoy playing the role of a nature researcher and finding the hidden natural treasures that are waiting to be discovered on their doorstep. For Basel Country is wilder than many people realise.
This exhibition is available in
German
