Light into the Moor: An exhibition about one of Bavaria's most precious natural heritage
With the exhibition Light into the Moor, the Dachau District Office focuses on the moor landscape of the Munich gravel plain. The exhibition runs from April 20 to May 11, 2026, in the foyer of the Dachau District Office and is accessible during the office's opening hours. The central question is why the preservation of the last peatlands is so significant and how this natural heritage can be preserved for future generations.

Moor as landscape, archive, and future space
The exhibition opens an art experience that operates less on decorative surface and more on insight. Light, information, and space intertwine: The moor appears as an ecological storage landscape, as a historically grown habitat, and as a subject of cultural education. This combination of natural history and contemporary relevance gives the presentation its unique exhibition atmosphere.

Knowledge made visible
Accompanying the exhibition, excursions, lectures, and guided tours are planned on-site. This transforms the visit from a mere viewing of works in a broader sense into a well-founded engagement with moor history, moor protection, and moor management. The exhibition is supported by the districts of Munich, Dachau, and Fürstenfeldbruck as well as the Dachauer Moos Association and AELF Fürstenfeldbruck.
