Long before people
mastered their fishing skills and became masters of seas and oceans, animals
and birds had been creative in fishing – some became professional “spearfishers”, some used their
claws as hooks, some used baits. Who are these fishermen from the Animal
kingdom you will find out at the exhibition “The Tale of the Fishermen and the Fish”.
Get to know what tricks for fishing were invented in Ancient times, how fishing has transformed from a means of survival into a popular hobby and a fishing rod into “sport equipment”. Apart from rare archeological artifacts and objects of fine arts, interesting and useful facts about fishermen and fish, the exhibition will offer you various creative and intellectual competitions, as well as a computer game for gourmets “The dinner is served!”.
