An evening between military history and nature conservation in Potsdam
With Close-Up Brandenburg: With Tanks for Nature Conservation, an exciting lecture is coming to the Brandenburg Museum for Future, Present, and History on September 10, 2026. The evening delves into the eventful history of the Döberitzer Heide and shows how a former military training area became a hotspot of biological diversity.
A landscape with an unusual past
The Döberitzer Heide is one of the most extraordinary natural and cultural landscapes of Brandenburg. For centuries, the area was militarily influenced, first as a drill ground and later as a military training area. The lecture discusses this history as well as the question of how nature gains new strength on contaminated sites. This very contrast makes the event experience so captivating: destruction, preservation, and renaturation come together in an impressive narrative framework.
A professional view on nature, use, and change
Speaker Kristin Hinsberger from the Heinz Sielmann Foundation combines expertise, environmental education, and lively communication. The event organizes historical use, nature conservation measures, and ecological development in a comprehensible manner, providing clear added value for anyone interested in regional history, landscape protection, and sustainable development. The Brandenburg Museum provides the appropriate context with its strong focus on the present, history, and future.
