Guided Story

Can you hear the gentle call of the lemurs? They often create a lively soundscape around here. Behind you, in those expansive enclosures, live around 1,300 monkeys. That's not just an impressive number but also a huge responsibility. Did you know that this center isn't just known for its research but also plays a vital role in the global exchange of primate knowledge? Look up—the building's architecture reflects the connection between nature and research. And if you glance to your right, nearby, lies the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, exploring a completely different yet equally fascinating world. Göttingen is a melting pot of science, and the German Primate Center is a shining example of that.
