An unforgettable evening with the Greater Horseshoe Bats in Hohenburg

On September 11, 2026, families will experience a special moment in nature at the Bat House Hohenburg: The Greater Horseshoe Bat will be observed up close, explained in a child-friendly manner, and even accompanied on its evening hunt at dusk. The family experience combines wonder, fun learning, and genuine nature observation.

When knowledge comes to life

The guided tour shows the animals on camera in their nursery. This provides children and adults with an illustrative insight into the behavior of this rare bat species. The event is expressly aimed at families and is interesting for children and teenagers aged 3 to 18.

Quality time with Aha moments

For families, this creates a calm, exciting evening with plenty of space for questions. Observing the bats fosters curiosity, understanding of nature, and a respectful view of endangered species. This is particularly valuable learning experience for children as they do not just see the animals but also follow their behavior directly.

What families should prepare for

Part of the tour takes place outdoors. Weatherproof clothing is therefore essential. Registration is required to ensure that the family-friendly group can be well planned. The offer is designed as a nature-based experience with educational value, combining safety, attention, and genuine exploration.

Why this excursion is special

The Greater Horseshoe Bat is considered a highly endangered species. The Bat House Hohenburg is home to Germany's last nursery of this bat. This is what makes the evening so extraordinary: families experience a place where conservation, education, and emotional closeness to wildlife come together.

Anyone looking for something special with children will find an evening full of children's laughter, gentle excitement, and shared time in nature. The excursion of the Greater Horseshoe Bat invites you to discover this rare wildlife live and experience the moment on-site.
