Historic Deichkrone Transforms into Interactive Climate & Flood Museum

A historic building in Neuwied, the Deichkrone, is being transformed into an interactive environment focused on climate change and flood protection. The €1 million federal government grant-funded project is led by Fabian Kochmann, a cultural scientist from Bad Hersfeld, Hesse, with experience in cultural management and sustainability projects.

The future museum, set to open its doors in the heart of Neuwied, will house interactive stations, a bistro, and aim to connect various city attractions, including the Rhine promenade and the city center. Its goal is to convey environmental knowledge, show connections, and awaken curiosity about the environment and the city's future. The new Deichkrone will be more than a museum, serving as a meeting place, knowledge hub, and tourist destination. Kochmann, the project manager, is developing the conceptual and design concept for the family-friendly, scientifically sound exhibition. Additional funding is being sought for the exhibition equipment and implementation.

The Deichkrone's transformation into an interactive experience world is well underway, with the project receiving a €1 million federal government grant. Led by Kochmann, the project aims to create a unique, educational, and engaging space that connects the city and its residents with environmental issues and flood protection.
