Tierpark Wismar

Tierpark Wismar is a zoo located on roughly 13 hectares of land near the Old Town, featuring open enclosures with bison, wolves, raccoons, ostriches, and other animals. The grounds include a monkey island where visitors can observe primates and a dedicated petting area for hands-on contact.

The park developed over time with ongoing improvements to animal habitats. A notable example is the significant expansion of the lynx enclosure, reflecting a growing commitment to improving living conditions for the residents.

The park serves as a place where families can connect with animals and learn about wildlife. These encounters help visitors develop a deeper appreciation for the creatures living here.

The grounds are accessible on foot and relatively flat, making for a comfortable walk through the park. Wear sturdy shoes and bring weather protection, since you will spend most of your time outdoors in open spaces.

The monkey island features an open-air design where visitors can watch small primates in a less confined setting. This approach creates a more natural experience compared to traditional enclosed exhibits.
