The NABU-Crane Centre Groß Mohrdorf
Since September 1996, the NABU-Crane Centre is located at Groß Mohrdorf about 14 km to the Northwest of the city Stralsund. It is situated within the internationally important crane staging region Darß-Zingst-Bodden chain.
The permanent exhibition can be visited year-around and provides all relevant information about the Eurasian crane and its relatives. The exhibition contains information boards, audio-visual media and anatomical preparations, which give interesting insights into the life of these impressive large birds. For individual people the entrance is free.
Here you get information about the best places for observing cranes and up-to-date info on the migration of cranes. Many excursions and other events are organized by the NABU-Crane Centre. One of these events is the "Week of the crane“, which takes place every year in September.
Here you can find information about the resting area at the Baltic Sea coast in our leaflet „Crane paradise“.
