The exhibition informs about the life and work of the geophysicist and Greenland researcher Alfred Wegener (1880-1930). The founder of the continental shift theory spent several summers as a child on the country estate of his grandparents. The museum with its high experience value is primarily aimed at children, young people and families. It builds a bridge from the geophysics of the 19th and 20th centuries to today's climate research.
