Slottsskogens Djurpark, Public zoo in Slottsskogen park, Gothenburg, Sweden.

The zoo houses Nordic animals including moose, seals, and penguins across several enclosures within the expansive Slottsskogen park grounds.

Founded in 1874, Slottsskogens Djurpark stands as Sweden's first zoo, opening its gates to the public in 1876 and maintaining free admission since then.

The facility maintains a collection of traditional Nordic domestic animal breeds, contributing to the preservation of regional agricultural heritage.

Visitors can observe animal feeding sessions at scheduled times, with seal demonstrations at 14:00 and penguin feedings at 14:20 each day.

The children's section, Barnens Zoo, allows young visitors to interact with farm animals and includes a specialized horse stick course.
