Vogelpark Heiligenkirchen, Bird park and zoo in Detmold, Germany

The Vogelpark Heiligenkirchen extends over 3.8 hectares with 1000 animals from 300 species, including pelicans, storks, cranes, peacocks, toucans, and various primates.

Kurt Eckstein established the park in 1969 as a space for his private bird collection, which later expanded into a public facility for birds and flowers.

The park participates in European conservation programs for endangered species, including the double-hornbill and Bolivian titi monkey preservation initiatives.

The facility opens daily from 9:00 to 18:00, features wheelchair access throughout the grounds, and maintains 200 parking spaces for cars plus dedicated bus parking.

Visitors enter a walk-through aviary housing 200 parakeets and receive opportunities to hold and pet trained parrots during scheduled keeper presentations.
