About Weinberg Nature Center

To promote and encourage an understanding, appreciation and study of the practice of conservation and of the natural sciences.

History

​

The Weinberg Nature Center sits on land donated to the Village of Scarsdale in 1958 by Wilhelm Weinberg, a Dutch banker and art collector. Weinberg had been on a business trip to Paris when the Nazis overran Holland. Thus, by accident, he escaped the Nazis, but his wife and children died in Auschwitz. The Weinberg Nature Center is dedicated to their memory.
