Museum Heineanum (ornithology museum)
Museum temporarily closed!
The Heineanum is undergoing renovations
The doors of the Museum of Ornithology are currently closed. The permanent exhibition is undergoing a comprehensive redesign. The content and layout are being reimagined, scientific content is being updated, and digital and interactive elements are being integrated. At the same time, the museum is becoming more accessible. Starting in fall 2027, the Heineanum will return with a fresh new look.
But: The Heineanum remains active! đź’š
Museum education projects and evening events will continue to take place even during the renovation phase. And even outside the museum, there are opportunities to experience the Heineanum’s expertise: The special exhibition “Fabrics of Medieval Bird Worlds,” developed in collaboration with the Cathedral Treasury, has been extended through January 10, 2027.
All current dates and information are available at any time on the Heineanum’s website: www.heineanum.de
The exhibitions showcase native birds as well as birds from around the world in all their diversity of forms and colors. Other sections of the exhibition focus on the origin and endangerment of these species. The unique Halberstadt dinosaurs (skeletons of plateosaurs and plesiosaurs) are also on display here.
