Karlsruhe Zoo, Municipal zoo and gardens in Karlsruhe, Germany.
The Karlsruhe Zoo encompasses 38 hectares of land, featuring animal exhibits integrated within landscaped gardens and natural water features throughout the grounds.
Founded in 1861 by poultry breeding association members, the zoo received initial funding from Grand Duke Friedrich I of Baden and officially opened in 1865.
The zoo operates under two municipal departments, combining traditional German garden design with modern animal habitats across its protected cultural heritage grounds.
The facility maintains two entrance points at the North Gate near Festplatz and South Gate near the main railway station, with operating hours from 9:00 until dusk.
The zoo includes an external section called Tierpark Oberwald, which extends the main facility with additional animal exhibits and natural spaces.
