Löbbecke Museum und Aquazoo, Natural history museum and aquarium in Düsseldorf, Germany
The Löbbecke Museum und Aquazoo brings together natural history collections and living aquatic and terrestrial animals under one roof in Düsseldorf. The facility houses more than 500 species, including rays, penguins, crocodiles, and many tropical fish in spacious tanks and terrariums.
The institution grew from merging a natural history collection with an aquarium and developed into a research center in North Rhine-Westphalia. Over the decades, the site expanded and became a place where science and public education work side by side.
Visitors follow a path through different habitats, each zone showing how animals adapted to their surroundings over millions of years. The displays help people see connections between species and understand why certain creatures live where they do.
The site on Kaiserswerther Strasse 380 opens daily from 10 AM to 6 PM and is fully wheelchair accessible. All exhibition areas can be reached without barriers, allowing every visitor to explore the animal displays comfortably.
An amphibian conservation station on site breeds endangered species and received United Nations recognition for this work. The programs help maintain populations that face serious threats in the wild.
