Special exhibition
City Insects: Frankfurt’s Tiny Helpers
Extended until further notice
As many natural habitats are increasingly being lost, cities like Frankfurt are becoming havens for insects. Here the animals fulfil important functions, as they are pollinators, scavengers, natural pest controllers and much more. They are irreplaceable for an intact natural environment, and therefore also for humans.
The City Insects exhibition invites visitors to get to know these fascinating little creatures in Frankfurt and to explore them together with Senckenberg scientists. It is part of the research project “SLInBio – Urban lifestyles and the valorisation of biodiversity: dragonflies, grasshoppers, bumblebees and co”.
