Zoologischer Garten Hof

Zoologischer Garten Hof is a zoo in the city of Hof that houses various animal species in open enclosures, including Bennett's wallabies, white-handed gibbons, and capuchin monkeys. The facility is laid out with different areas for visitors to explore at their own pace.

The zoo was founded in 1954 as a project to showcase animals to the local community. During the 1994 State Garden Show, the facility was expanded and integrated with the neighboring Theresienstein City Park.

The zoo serves as a gathering place where local families come together to experience animals from different parts of the world. It offers a space where children and adults can learn about wildlife while enjoying time outdoors.

The grounds are easy to walk through, with clear paths and the zoo spread across a manageable area. A cafe offers refreshments on warmer days, and a playground provides a place for children to rest and play.

Visitors can interact with wallabies in a special enclosure where they roam freely alongside an aviary. Colorful cockatoos and zebra finches fly freely in this space, creating an unusual up-close encounter with living birds.
