The Days of Biodiversity at the Ecomuseum of Alsace

The Écomusée d’Alsace in Ungersheim celebrates nature! France’s largest open-air museum is organizing the Journées de la Biodiversité (Biodiversity Days) on May 11 and 12. These dates were not chosen at random, as they coincide with World Endangered Species Day and International Plant Health Day. On the program: guided tours, participatory workshops, events and encounters. The (re)discovery of its new district, the Forêt des Jeux, will complete the program.

Numerous associations committed to preserving the environment will be offering biodiversity-related activities. It’s high time to make peace with nature. But isn’t the best way to do this to get to know nature? For starters, why not explore the Écomusée and discover its natural heritage? With over 5,000 natural species listed, the Écomusée d’Alsace is a real example of how to manage natural and tourist areas.

In this setting of biodiversity, discover the Forêt des Jeux, an area entirely dedicated to children, with a barefoot path, huts and swings for laughter and fun right in the heart of nature!

Bridging the gap between wild and domesticated nature, this one-hectare play and sensory area features an educational vegetable garden. As you’ll see, there’s no better way to encourage children to become active players in their environment!
