In the nature conservation centre Bergenhusen the main emphasis is put on the white stork and its habitat. Every year thousands of visitors, among them many children, adolescents and school classes, come to the village in Stapelholm during the six month of the stork season. They take part in guided tours and have the possibility to learn about the stork, its endangerment and its protection in the exhibition of the centre. In this museum other animal and plant species, which need a similar biosphere like the stork, are also taken into consideration.
