The Müritzeum shows the beauty and special features of the Mecklenburg Lake District and the Müritz National Park in an interactive exhibition. In Germany's largest aquarium landscape for native freshwater fish, you dive under the water surface of the 1000 lakes.

The Müritzeum is a multimedia nature experience center. Fascinating, entertaining and informative, simple and understandable, it presents the vacation region around the Müritz. The visit is suitable for young and old alike. The Müritzeum sees itself as a showcase for the Müritz National Park. The highlight of the aquarium landscape is the two-story deep pool with a silvery shining shoal of vendace. The exhibitions with their interactive theme rooms and the natural history exhibits are scientifically supervised and are based on the unique and over 150-year-old natural history collections of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The permanent exhibition "Nature in the Collection Cabinet" provides information about the collection founded in 1866 by Baron Hermann von Maltzan.

The museum garden around the idyllic Herrensee invites visitors to take a stroll. It attracts the younger guests with its adventure playground. Here children become pirates on the high seas. The Müritzeum is a family-friendly and accessible house.
