An exciting nature experience for little explorers in the Botanical Garden Potsdam

On August 16, 2026, at 3:00 PM, the Botanical Garden of the University of Potsdam invites you to an action program that takes children aged 6 and older, along with their companions, into the fascinating world of carnivorous plants. The experience combines education, wonder, and real audience interaction – ideal for families looking for something special in Potsdam during the summer holidays.

When plants become hunters

The focus is on those plants that have always fueled the imagination with their trapping mechanisms. Garden educator Steffen Ramm explains clearly how Venus flytraps, nectar, and rapidly closing traps really relate to each other.
