Experience sharks up close: A fascinating lecture about the predators of the seas

On November 6, 2026, the Natural Research Society Bamberg invites you to an image-rich evening about sharks at the City Archive Bamberg. The lecture by Enno Stiller, the chairman of the German Elasmobranch Society e.V. from Hamburg, combines scientific expertise with illustrative knowledge transfer and opens a differentiated view on one of the oldest animal groups on Earth.

Evolution and diversity in the ocean habitat

The focus is on the evolution of sharks and their significant role in marine ecosystems. The analysis in a metaphorical natural history sense does not lead to paintings or sculptures, but to a precise observation of biological forms, movements, and survival strategies. Less known shark species broaden the view on the great diversity of this fascinating animal group.

Between myth and scientific knowledge

The lecture dispels common myths and sharpens the perception of the actual behavior of the animals. Film footage and visual materials make the content immediately tangible. Thus, an intense aesthetic experience of a special kind emerges: movements in the water, elegant body shapes, and the spatial vastness of the oceans become mentally present in the exhibition atmosphere of the lecture room.

Threats, protection, and cultural education

Another focus is on the threats sharks face today. Issues of species and marine protection connect zoological expertise with social responsibility. The evening thus offers not only an exciting artistic experience of nature observation but also cultural education: It conveys scientific contexts, promotes a reflective approach to environmental issues, and opens new perspectives on the fragile balance of marine habitats.

An evening for curious nature and science enthusiasts

The event is aimed at anyone interested in marine biology, evolution, biodiversity, and the protection of endangered species. Enno Stiller combines professional classification with understandable explanations and concrete images. This creates a varied lecture that deepens knowledge and sustainably strengthens the fascination for sharks.

Conclusion: Seeing sharks anew

Visitors can expect an informative, atmospheric, and visually supported evening about elegant movements, surprising species diversity, and the ecological importance of sharks. Anyone who wants to get to know the predators of the seas beyond clichés and expand their perspective on marine protection should experience this special artistic event of natural education live at the City Archive Bamberg.
