Welcome to the National Park Houses and Centers of the Lower Saxony Wadden Sea! Our brand offers a diverse range of products and services aimed at enhancing your understanding and appreciation of the Wadden Sea ecosystem. Visitors can expect friendly staff, a fantastic selection of activities for children, as well as engaging and informative exhibitions. We boast three National Park and UNESCO World Heritage Centers, fourteen National Park Houses, and a National Park Information Center located along the coast and on the islands.

These facilities are ready to sharpen your awareness of the interconnectedness of life within the Wadden Sea and to promote the concept of national parks. Most of our establishments offer year-round exhibitions, guided tours, educational vacations, and lectures on current topics. In holiday resorts, our National Park Houses provide leisure activities and nature experiences.

On rainy vacation days, you can explore our exhibitions to enhance your understanding of the coast. Our houses are not dusty museums but rather living representations of the Wadden Sea. Impressively, our exhibits consist of items that have their own lives in the natural world, such as oddly-shaped shells in the wash zone, squawking birds in the salt marshes, and the powerful force with which the sea surrounds the islands.

We offer guided tours that prioritize providing a memorable experience, whether you are on vacation, on a field trip, or part of an interested excursion group. Our National Park Houses and Centers, along with our education partners, serve as a hub for anyone who wants to experience more nature! The National Park Houses and Centers are generally operated by the local municipality, often in collaboration with one or more nature conservation associations. The operating basis is a long-term administrative agreement between the operators and the state of Lower Saxony, which covers a large portion of the operating costs.

All our facilities provide basic information about the national park. However, each establishment also has its own unique thematic focus, making it worth visiting all our houses. We look forward to welcoming you!
