Tiergarten Hannover

Tiergarten Hannover is a forest park in Kirchrode where deer, wild boars, and other native animals live in natural settings. The grounds spread across wooded terrain with different areas where visitors can watch animals moving freely among trees and clearings.

The park began as a royal hunting ground in the 17th century and later transformed into a public space for observing nature. This shift from private reserve to open access has shaped its purpose ever since.

The park serves as a place where people connect with nature and learn about local wildlife through observation. It functions as a gathering space for families and offers quiet moments in the forest away from the city.

The pathways through the park are walkable and allow you to explore the different sections on foot. Wear comfortable shoes since the trails go uphill and downhill across the landscape.

What stands out is that multiple deer species like red deer, roe deer, and fallow deer roam together freely and look quite different from one another. This mix lets visitors compare the species directly and notice their different behaviors.
