For friends of nature and lovers of rare butterflies, a visit to the collection of Dr Helmut Steuer in Bad Blankenburg is an absolute must. The doctor and entomologist specialised in the study of butterflies as part of his scientific endeavours. Dr Steuer discovered and catalogued more than 2,200 species of butterfly in Bad Blankenburg, from a total of 3,500 in central Europe. A part of his colourful butterfly collection was donated to his home city. Since June 2007, the collection has been housed on the ground floor of the town hall.
