Salzburg Zoo

Salzburg Zoo extends across 14 hectares of land, housing 1500 animals from 150 species in natural enclosures that incorporate the local terrain features.

The site originated as an archiepiscopal game park in the 15th century before Archbishop Markus Sittikus integrated it into the Hellbrunn complex in 1619.

The zoo functions as a nature conservation center, offering educational programs and special guided tours that connect visitors with wildlife from different continents.

Visitors can access the zoo daily from 9:00 AM with varying closing times throughout the year, while the Salzburg Card grants one free admission.

The African section features a large savannah enclosure where white rhinoceros roam alongside other species in a recreated natural habitat.
