SHOWING STYRIA

Titled ‘Diversity of Life’, SHOWING STYRIA 2023 at the Herberstein Animal World focuses on the preservation of species and habitat diversity, as well as measures to counter climate change, as great challenges of our age. A mobile pavilion also awakens interest in these important themes beyond our province’s borders.

The new House of Biodiversity Herberstein Animal World with its many hands-on stations invites visitors to experience the wonder of nature’s diversity, raising awareness of the important benefits that intact natural cycles provide for us. The adjacent Feistritzklamm Nature Reserve offers the opportunity to combine the visit to the exhibition with outdoor experiences of nature. Five

Rosegger’s Birthplace Alpl

A walk through the forest landscape around the Alpl brings the visitor to the place where the Styrian writer Peter Rosegger spent his childhood.

The Kluppeneggerhof reminds us of the simple living conditions into which Peter Rosegger was born in 1843 and which he described in his writings: cooking took place over the hearth in the openfire kitchen, the central parlour served both for eating and sleeping purposes, as well as for working in. Besides the home, there are stables, a barn, a rural storehouse and a dried flaxen hut.
