Tierpark Klosterwald, Wildlife park in Lich, Germany
Tierpark Klosterwald is a wildlife park in Lich that houses various animal species across natural terrain. Visitors encounter deer, llamas, goats, four-horned sheep, emus, and owls in open enclosures.
The park sits near the ruins of Cistercian monastery Arnsburg, founded in 1174 and dissolved in 1803. This location connects the site to a long monastic past in the region.
The park displays aviaries with different parrot species that visitors can observe up close. This direct encounter with the animals makes nature and wildlife protection personally meaningful.
The park is easy to reach on foot and has wide pathways through the enclosures that work for all visitors. Dogs on leashes are welcome, making visits with pets comfortable.
The park opened in 1968 on the edge of the Hardwald Hain forest, about 500 metres west of Kloster Arnsburg on the former B 488 road. It covers 4 hectares and keeps roughly 200 animals, among them lynxes, kangaroos, prairie dogs and raccoon dogs. Visitors can take on a sponsorship for an individual animal.
