The Danube
Hands-On Exhibition for children ages 6 to 12
A bubbling spring stream, a mighty river, a widely ramified delta on the Black Sea – the Danube flows over 2,857 kilometres through 10 European countries. But how did this river come into being? Why does it change shape? What forces are at work within it? And who lives in and around the Danube?
Artistic interactive stations, games and experiments provide answers to these questions. Steer your own Danube boat, find out how a river cruise works, and explore the diverse languages and cultures of the Danube region. Explore tiny aquatic creatures in the Danube laboratory and search for the secret migration routes of Danubefish. Experiment with gravel, stones and sand and find out why this ‘sediment’ is so important. Come with us on a journey of discovery and explore how diverse and unique the Danube river system is!

Rahmenprogramm zur Ausstellung:
The Danube Island Discovery Tour, part of the DONAURAUSCHEN & FLUSSGEFLÜSTER exhibition, is an urban walking trail on the Danube Island that leads to various spots—some are hidden, while others are bustling with activity. Most of the walk takes you along the riverbank—on paved paths or small trails. Along the way, you’ll learn interesting facts about the Danube and its long Viennese island, all in line with the interactive exhibition.
