Discover the PLAYMOBIL exhibition at Rostock Zoo.
From March 1 to April 30, 2026, the Darwineum at Rostock Zoo will be transformed into a colorful world of adventure. Discover the special exhibition "The Evolution of Animals with PLAYMOBIL - Marvel, Play, Learn at Rostock Zoo" by diorama artist Oliver Schaffer.
Time travel in miniature format
Are you ready for perhaps the smallest - and at the same time biggest - adventure in the history of the earth? At the new special exhibition in the Darwineum, the iconic PLAYMOBIL figures meet the species-rich diversity of Rostock Zoo.
Join us on a fascinating journey through 4.5 billion years. Here, the boundaries between science, fantasy and pure playfulness are blurred to create an extraordinary exhibition experience.
The renowned diorama artist and PLAYMOBIL brand ambassador Oliver Schaffer - owner of the world's largest PLAYMOBIL collection - has created ten breathtaking display landscapes exclusively for Rostock Zoo.
History comes to life here
With thousands of pieces, countless animals and an incredible love of detail, the miniature biotopes invite you to see the world through different eyes. It is an experience that connects generations: It brings back nostalgic childhood memories for parents and grandparents, while the youngest visitors playfully understand how life on our blue planet came about.
The experience is rounded off with Adrián Limón's photo exhibition in the Old World Monkey House. The Mexican artist creates animal photographs with PLAYMOBIL figures - a poetic combination of art, play and nature observation.
