About us

The German Nature and Biodiversity Conservation Union (NABU) is the oldest and largest nature conservation organization in Germany. Founded in 1899, initially as the German Association for the Protection of Birds, it has been successfully campaigning for the interests of nature and environmental protection for over 100 years now. The municipal association in Aachen was founded in 1988 and has been campaigning for nature conservation in the city of Aachen ever since.
