A glimpse at Karlsfeld's transformation between moor, settlement, and cultural landscape

The special exhibition Nature Transformation in Karlsfeld – From the “Desolate Grounds” to Cultural Landscape at the Heimatmuseum Karlsfeld tells the story of a place that has fundamentally changed in more than 200 years. Historical maps, aerial photographs, images, exhibits, and text panels show how a deserted moss landscape became a habitat for many people.

A tangible history

The presentation connects local history with regional development and relies on a clear, comprehensible narrative. The stations from the cultivation of wet moss grounds to gravel extraction and the strong settlement pressure of the post-war period can be seen. Thus, the exhibition offers a real event experience for visitors who wish to understand Karlsfeld anew.
