ZUGvögel – Collection in Motion
ZUGvögel – Eine Sammlung in Bewegung
© MfN Berlin
Our bird collection has to be partially relocated due to renovation. We have taken this as an opportunity for a one-off special exhibition focusing on the historical bird specimens and input from our visitors.
The collection room with the historical bird specimens is currently being renovated as part of the Future Plan. For the approximately 11,500 historical mounted specimens, this means: please move out temporarily.
All specimens were cleaned, photographed and packed into transport boxes. Instead of keeping the boxes behind closed doors, this move offered a rare opportunity to make this part of the collection accessible to the public for the first time via the ZUGvögel project. But that's not all. We spoke to over 350 people to help shape the themes of ZUGvögel. Their questions, perspectives and associations form the basis for an exhibition that is as colourful and diverse as the world of birds itself.
