Dragonflies – Winged Jewels at the Gilching Town Hall

Shimmering colors, precise flight maneuvers, and a life cycle between water and air make dragonflies impressive ambassadors of local biodiversity. The exhibition by BUND Naturschutz invites you to learn more about this fascinating group of insects and discover their ecological significance.

Between Water World and Aerial Acrobatics

Dragonflies are wanderers between two habitats. While the adult insects glide as elegant aerial hunters over ponds, streams, and wet meadows, their larvae develop in the water. The exhibition vividly conveys how closely aquatic ecology, species diversity, and the protection of natural habitats are interconnected.

Shimmering Diversity and Artistic Forms of Nature

Turquoise, deep blue, red, and metallic shimmering green tones characterize the aesthetic experience of this nature exhibition. The characteristic body shapes, transparent wings, and powerful compound eyes showcase a biological construction of remarkable precision. The focus here is not on painting or sculpture, but on nature itself as a creative form-giver.

Cultural Education with an Ecological Claim

The exhibition designed by BUND Naturschutz connects natural history information with environmental education. Topics such as developmental stages, habitats, threatened diversity, and the consequences of the climate crisis provide an accessible approach to scientific interconnections. Families, nature lovers, and art-interested visitors will experience an exhibition that combines careful observation, wonder, and a sense of responsibility.

Exhibition Atmosphere at the Town Hall

A concentrated interior space for nature observation and aesthetic experience is created at the Gilching Town Hall. The exhibition serves as a compact visit for in-between and as an inspiring starting point to attentively observe dragonflies later at local waters.

Conclusion: Discover an Artistic Experience of Nature

Dragonflies – Winged Jewels offers an informed perspective on an ancient yet threatened group of insects. Visitors can expect an inspiring connection of natural science, environmental education, and sensual contemplation. Those who want to directly understand the beauty of local biodiversity should experience this exhibition live at the Gilching Town Hall.
