Auenhaus Information Center

The permanent exhibition offers visitors the opportunity to better understand the special features of the protected area, its history and its tasks using replicas and models. For example, important protagonists of the floodplain habitat are presented and visitors can take a look inside an elaborately designed beaver lodge, the home of the Elbe beaver, probably the best-known inhabitant here on the Middle Elbe. Everyone can get active themselves at the multimedia stations, test their acquired knowledge and discover exciting things from the realm of nature.

After visiting the exhibition, the outdoor area of the information center with its small pond and farm garden invites you to linger. A large insect hotel can also be admired here and the beaver cinema provides insights into the everyday life of the Elbe beaver during the summer months.
