Thüringer Zoopark Erfurt, Large zoological park in Erfurt, Germany

The Thüringer Zoopark spans across 63 hectares of land, making it Germany's third-largest zoological garden with more than 1000 animals from 157 species.

The zoological garden opened its doors in 1959 under Harald Roth's leadership, starting with yaks from Pamir, bison, and Kazakh camels in its collection.

The zoo maintains a traditional German farmstead called Axmanns Hof, presenting domestic and farm animals in their historical agricultural setting.

Visitors can reach the zoo using bus line 30 or tram line 5, with operating hours from 9 AM to 6 PM between March and October.

The Africa savanna enclosure spans 4500 square meters where zebras, ostriches, impalas, and sable antelopes live together in an integrated habitat.
