Tropikariet, Zoo and public aquarium in Stattena, Helsingborg, Sweden
Tropikariet is an indoor zoo and public aquarium in the Stattena neighborhood of Helsingborg, Sweden. It displays animals and plants from tropical regions, arranged in sections that recreate environments such as rainforest and coral reef.
Tropikariet was built to bring tropical ecosystems to a Swedish audience that rarely encounters such wildlife. Over time it expanded to include marine life and mammals like lemurs from Madagascar alongside its original reptile and bird collections.
A visit typically takes a couple of hours, and the paths inside are easy to follow on foot. The space is accessible for strollers and wheelchairs, and there is a café and shop on site for when you need a break.
Tropikariet is listed as a venue for proposals, which is unusual for a zoo and aquarium. The combination of living animals, water, and tropical plants creates a setting that feels far removed from a typical event space.
