Since foundation of the BZG in “European Conservation Year 1970”, the society has carried out numerous natural history research projects with state support.

After completing the Flora of the Principality of Liechtenstein, experts wrote further important contributions on the flora of Liechtenstein that have been published in the forty-two reports to date. The exhibition project space documents the history of botanical and zoological research and also presents the working groups "Amphibian and reptile protection", "Ornithological information service", "Bat protection" and "Botanical information service".

Project space 'Parliament of Plants'
17 July 2020–28 March 2021

As part of the exhibition Parliament of Plants, the admission-free 'Seitenlichtsaal' is conceived as a changing, growing "project space". It links the immediate outside world with questions of art and will enablemeetings between a wide range of scientific and artistic-poetic approaches to and perspectives on the plant kingdom.

A production of Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, curated by Christiane Meyer-Stoll with Annett Höland, co-curator of the project space.
