Die Überblicksführung beleuchtet die Polarexpedition von 1912 unter dem Schweizer Forscher Alfred de Quervain. Fotografien, Forschungsobjekte und spannende Exponate lassen Kälte und Klimaforschung wiederaufleben.
In 1912, Alfred de Quervain trekked across Greenland. The data collected by the Swiss explorer on the seven-week expedition are still of great value for science today. The exhibition examines de Quervain’s pioneering feat in the eternal ice, and links it with the present. Switzerland still carries out glacier research in Greenland, making a significant contribution to one of the most crucial issues of our time: global warming.
