Immersive Amazon Mural Experience at Gasometer Pforzheim

Located in Pforzheim, Baden-Württemberg, the Gasometer Pforzheim offers a truly distinct indoor adventure highlighting the grandeur of one of the world's most vital ecosystems—the Amazon rainforest. This vast former gas storage tank has been transformed into a towering gallery space, housing the AMAZONIEN mural, a colossal 3000m² panoramic artwork that vividly captures the diverse vegetation, wildlife, and intricate ecological layers of the Amazon basin. Visitors ascend a multi-level viewing tower inside the gasometer, each platform offering a different angle from which to absorb the lush rainforest scene unfolding all around. Here, the experience feels more like a journey through the canopy than a conventional museum exhibit.

The Amazon rainforest’s complex ecosystem is brought to life, not through live immersion but rather through a striking and ultra-realistic artistic interpretation, making it a go-to destination for nature lovers, educators, and groups interested in biodiversity and conservation. Unlike outdoor settings, this experience promises all-weather access with an intimate connection to a natural environment that’s otherwise distant and challenging to reach. Located in the heart of Pforzheim, the Gasometer stands out as a cultural and scientific landmark in a region better known for Black Forest trails and urban explorations.

Gasometer Pforzheim’s unique blend of art, ecology, and architecture marks it as a significant destination within southern Germany’s outdoor-leaning travel scene. Its all-ages appeal makes it ideal for groups of 10 or more looking to engage with environmental awareness on a scale rarely seen indoors. For travelers based in Stuttgart or Karlsruhe, a visit here broadens your perspective on global biodiversity without leaving the European continent.

Whether you’re drawn by the dramatic visuals, the educational value, or the chance to see the Amazon through a new lens, the Gasometer’s AMAZONIEN mural experience is a striking reminder of the Amazon’s vital role in the planet’s health, right in the middle of Baden-Württemberg.
