For hundreds, sometimes thousands of years, they lay hidden in the bog: bog bodies offer you a unique insight into the world of our ancestors. During the 135-minute bog train ride with four stops, you will learn what finds from all over Europe reveal about life, last meals, clothing, and circumstances of death in the Bronze and Iron Ages. You will discover how the dead were treated at that time, the interpretation of mysterious bog phenomena, as well as excavation sites and research methods. And why bog bodies are even connected to pickles, you can taste on-site. Registration for groups of 12 or more can be made by calling 04778 81200. There are, of course, places available for guests in wheelchairs. In this case, you must register in advance with MoorIZ via email (mooriz@ahlenmoor.de) or by phone at 04757-8189558, as the places need to be specially prepared. Unfortunately, online ticketing is not possible in this case! Dogs are not allowed on the bog train! In extreme weather conditions, cancellations may occur.
