Wildpark Pforzheim

Wildpark Pforzheim is a wildlife park covering about 16 hectares with native European species including deer, chamois, and bison. The grounds provide these animals with space to live in a natural setting that supports their wellbeing.

Pforzheim established the park as a public facility for its residents. Over time, it grew into an important center for wildlife conservation and environmental education in the region.

The education center Ewald-Steinle-Haus features aquariums and rotating exhibitions that bring local wildlife to life. These displays help visitors understand the animals living in the region and why protecting their habitats matters.

The park is easy to walk through with wide paths suitable for visitors of all abilities. The best time to visit is early morning or late afternoon, when animals are more active and the park feels less crowded.

Lynxes and otters are fed every Saturday, Sunday, and public holiday at 3 PM, allowing visitors to watch these rare predators eat. These feeding sessions show the natural behavior of these skilled hunters up close.
