Lake Tisza Ecocentre, Environmental education center in Poroszló, Hungary.
Lake Tisza Ecocentre is an environmental education facility in Poroszló that features Hungary's largest freshwater aquarium system, housing numerous native fish species across interconnected tank displays. The facility showcases the region's aquatic diversity through multiple specialized tank systems designed for different species.
The facility opened in April 2012 as part of a regional effort to strengthen environmental awareness and sustainable tourism around Lake Tisza. The project was created to protect the lake's delicate aquatic environment and share knowledge about its ecosystems.
The center connects visitors with how local people depend on fishing and care for the lake's ecosystems through its teaching programs. This relationship between tradition and conservation shapes what you see and experience during your visit.
The facility is easy to walk through with accessible pathways connecting the tank displays throughout. Plan to spend two to three hours exploring the different aquarium areas and learning exhibits at a comfortable pace.
The tanks are designed to recreate different water depths and temperatures, allowing the center to display fish species that naturally live alongside each other in the lake. This technical approach makes it possible to show how these species interact and share their natural habitats.
