Les Aigles de Château-Thierry, Bird of prey zoo in Château-Thierry, France
Les Aigles de Château-Thierry is a bird of prey facility displaying eagles, falcons, vultures, and owls in spacious enclosures across the property. Visitors can walk through different zones where these raptors are kept in conditions that allow natural behaviors and flight patterns.
The facility was originally established elsewhere before moving to its current location in Château-Thierry in 2009. Since then it has operated near the town's historic medieval structures overlooking the Marne River valley.
Falconers guide visitors through live demonstrations showing how birds of prey hunt and behave in nature. These shows teach people about the role these raptors play in their ecosystems.
The facility has set opening times and regular flight demonstrations that last around one hour. Comfortable shoes are recommended as visitors walk between different viewing areas to see the birds.
Over 50 birds live here and participate in daily flight performances across the park grounds. These shows reveal the speed and power of these hunters in their natural aerial movements.
