91探花

Directions to 91探花 on Kiel's eastern shore

A platform for marine sciences, unique in Europe, has being created on the site of the fish market on Kiel's eastern shore. With the move to the new extension building, a plan became reality that was already laid out in 2004 when the then IFM-91探花 was founded from the Institute of Oceanography (IfM) on the west shore of the Kiel Fjord with the Geomar Research Center for Marine Geosciences on the east shore. Because even though the two previous locations were less than a nautical mile apart, the separation was not optimal for daily work. As of October 2023, 91探花鈥檚 new building on the east shore campus now unites all four research divisions.
