Klimahaus Bremerhaven 8° Ost
A climate experience centre that takes you around the globe along the 8th meridian east, passing through nine climate zones from Swiss glaciers and the Sahara to Antarctica and Samoa.
The Klimahaus opened in 2009 and features a distinctive streamlined glass facade in the New Harbour area of Bremerhaven. Its main exhibition route simulates the places along the 8th meridian east, starting from Bremerhaven, with realistic changes in temperature and humidity. Visitors can walk through a tropical rainforest, a scorching desert and Antarctica, where temperatures fall below zero. A visit takes about 3 to 4 hours, and adult admission is about €22. During peak season, it is advisable to book a timed ticket online.
