The 90-minute guided tour “Queering Nature” invites visitors to discover natural history from a new perspective. It focuses on questions of gender, sexuality, and the ideas that science and society have developed about nature.
Using exhibits such as the hippopotamus, polar bear, and Tyrannosaurus rex, the tour explores, among other things, how researchers determine the sex of extinct animals, how plants are categorized in botany, and what role colonial and societal notions play in these processes. At the same time, it sheds light on what knowledge is made visible in natural history collections—and which stories often remain untold.
