ABOUT THE FLUVARIUM

The Fluvarium is a public environmental education centre focusing on freshwater and riparian ecology. The word Fluvarium is derived from the latin root “fluv” meaning flowing water. Fluvarium therefore literally means “windows on a stream”, and aptly describes the nine large viewing windows that allow our guests a glimpse into a natural, freshwater habitat.
