Wildpark Mainz-Gonsenheim

The park spans over 3 hectares of forested land, housing 100 animals from 20 species, including red deer, fallow deer, mouflon, and wild boars.

Founded in the 1950s by local hunters of Gonsenheim, the park initially maintained only four species before the city of Mainz expanded its animal collection in the 1970s.

The park functions as a regional educational center, presenting endangered domestic animal breeds such as Thuringian forest goats and German Sperber chickens.

The facility operates 24 hours daily with free admission, and visitors can purchase specialized food from vending machines to feed the animals.

The park includes a bird rescue station that provides medical care and rehabilitation services for injured wild birds from the surrounding region.
