Landesmuseum Natur und Mensch

This natural history museum showcases the ecology of Lower Saxony’s landscapes, including a huge section of peat bog with niches displaying some bog-preserved bodies that date as far back as the Roman period, accompanied by recovered pottery and metalwork of the time. Downstairs is a small aquarium and upstairs are some modern exhibits on various regional ecosystems, but unless you can read German they probably won't hold much interest.
