Did you know that some of the creatures here have remained almost unchanged for millions of years, like living fossils? Behind you is the Old Botanical Garden, a place full of botanical wonders, just as fascinating as the underwater life. If you take a closer look, you might see how the scientists at GEOMAR are trying to unlock the mysteries of the deep sea. This blend of nature and science is what makes this place so special.
