When the body becomes a discovery route

The exhibition takes visitors through two floors of the human body and the cultural history of eating. The interactive body journey moves from the mouth, through the stomach and intestines, to the rectum, accompanied by puzzle stations, models, and clearly presented information on digestion, organs, and senses. A market of opportunities deepens themes like healthy eating, eating habits, and global food distribution.

From the Stone Age to the diet of tomorrow

Visitors will experience a wide arc from the Paleolithic, through ancient Rome, the Middle Ages, and the Baroque period, to the industrialization in the Braunschweig area. This time travel connects technological innovations, social differences, religious regulations, and future questions like sustainable or artificial nutrition into a densely narrated exhibition experience.
