SEALEVEL
The SEALEVEL experience room takes you on a fascinating journey into the sea and the oceans. Young and old alike can listen to the songs of whales, be enchanted by pictures and films or playfully engage with the topic of marine conservation. There is so much to discover!
A journey into the world of the oceans
Welcome to SEALEVEL - an adventure space that shows you how beautiful and exciting the sea is, but also the challenges it faces. From the glittering water on the surface to the dark depths - the sea is not only home to many animals and plants, but also a place that fascinates many people. It can teach us many things and also reflects how the world is changing. Discover exciting exhibits, interesting scientific information and interactive stations that illustrate how important the ocean is for our lives.
In the SEALEVEL, you are at eye level with the sea. Jump in and let yourself drift or dive deeper and learn to understand the sea. Have fun on your journey from the coast through the ocean to the deep sea!

More than just an exhibition
The SEALEVEL brings together exhibits from all of Kiel's marine science institutions in one place - right in the centre of the pedestrian zone. This central location was deliberately chosen to make the SEALEVEL a place of encounter. A place where you feel at home and are invited to leave your own footprint.
Discover our creative wall
Right in the entrance area, you can leave your thoughts, handicrafts and other creative works on the theme of the sea. Our selfie spot is also located here!
Go on an expedition
Children and young people can pick up our research rally at the information desk and become certified deep-sea explorers with the right answers. - Tip: Fun for adults too!
Experience the facets of the sea
Our constantly growing programme offers a wide range of experiences, insights and opportunities for participation for all generations, from creative workshops to readings and specialist lectures.

Programme & Highlights
A special highlight is the living sea painting in the entrance area, which was created by the citizens of Kiel in December 2024 under the guidance of sea painters Ute and Jens Jacobsen. It can and should be continuously developed further by visitors.
We would like to thank our partners:
The SEALEVEL is a joint project of the City of Kiel, Kiel-Marketing and our strong partners (in alphabetical order), without whom the SEALEVEL would never have become a reality:
It is made possible by the "Sustainable inner cities and centres" programme of the Federal Ministry of Housing, Urban Development and Building.
