Explore the American rainforest in search of the legendary Mayan culture.

Unique jade masks and precious jewellery, artistic ceramics and impressive stone reliefs bring the days of the Maya kings back to life.

For the significant special exhibition “Maya – Kings Of The Rainforest” the exhibition centre “Lokschuppen” and the “Roemer- und Pelizaeus – Museum Hildesheim” were able to gather over 200 valuable objects from all over the world, some of which have never been displayed in Europe before.

Pyramids, palaces and ball courts, the power and riches of the mighty kings, war and afterlife, religion and writing – a unique and holistic display of this mysterious culture awaits you.
