Nature Park Information Center at the Klaus-Bahlsen-Haus

Discover what makes Usedom's flora and fauna so unique.

Information Center at the Klaus-Bahlsen-Haus

The Klaus-Bahlsen-Haus, the restored former train station building in the town of Usedom, houses the information center for the nature park founded in 1999, the Usedom Tourist Information Office, as well as the nature park administration and the nature park ranger station for the Usedom Island Nature Park. There is also a station here for the island-wide bike-sharing system, UsedomRad.

Exhibition on the Island's Natural Environment

Of particular interest to visitors is the informative exhibition on the natural environment of our island and the adjacent strip of mainland. Inside the exhibition space, visitors are introduced to the natural environment of the island of Usedom through the use of modern multimedia technology. The central theme of water - a characteristic element of Usedom - runs throughout the entire exhibition.

“Nature Conservation on Usedom” for Flora and Fauna

Thematically, the exhibition covers topics such as beaches and dunes as habitats, life in the reeds, lowland peatland management using the Thurbruch as an example, and coastal dynamics illustrated by the Streckelsberg. Furthermore, the theme of “Nature Conservation on Usedom” is explained through specimens of relevant target species such as the white-tailed eagle, otter, and beaver. The nature park exhibition is complemented by a 23-minute film about the Usedom Island Nature Park.
