Mardorf Nature Park Visitor Centre
The Nature Park House Mardorf presents a journey through time of the peatlands in the permanent exhibition "From peat cutting to climate protection - peatlands in the change of their function". Interactive theme islands provide insights into traditional hand-peat cutting, industrial extraction, the renaturation of these landscapes and their function for climate protection. In a separate multi-vision room, visitors can approach the moor landscape from different angles: for example, from a bird's eye view or up close at "eye level" of a peat moss.
