Wiesbaden Weeks of Biodiversity: WieWoBiodiv
From columbine to ziplzalp: biodiversity is a treasure that needs to be protected and celebrated. In Wiesbaden, this will take place from May 22 to June 15, 2025 as part of the Biodiversity Weeks.
Together with many initiatives and nature lovers, the state capital of Wiesbaden invites you to experience biodiversity. The WieWoBiodiv program is as diverse as the topic, because there is a lot to discover in and around Wiesbaden.
Learn exciting facts about wild "fellow citizens" and our coexistence with them, the healing powers of plants and the cultivation of healthy food. Discover amazing natural treasures and inspiring opportunities to help shape and preserve precious habitats yourself.
