Ystad Djurpark, Animal park in Skårby, Sweden

Ystad Djurpark is a zoo 10 km northwest of Ystad, near the village of Skårby, and the southernmost zoo in Sweden. Its grounds adjoin a former farmhouse of 600 m2 whose buildings serve as entrance, zoo shop and café; the red wooden entrance building with white "Ystad Djurpark" lettering and a white gate marked "Entré" stands at the edge of a gravel path. The park holds over 250 animals of about 60 species, from elk, bison and zebra to lemurs, meerkats and macaques, plus terrariums for insects.

Ystad Djurpark opened in 1998 next to a former farm whose buildings now serve as the entrance, zoo shop and café. It lies about 10 km northwest of Ystad, near the village of Skårby, and is the southernmost zoo in Sweden. It is a member of the Swedish zoo association.

The zoo keeps old Swedish livestock breeds alongside exotic species: the Rödkulla cattle, Gotland sheep and the farm animals born in 2014, including cows, pigs, goats and sheep. The former farmhouse at the entrance, now shop and café, ties the animal collection to the surrounding agricultural landscape.

The park is open only from 1 May to 30 September and stays closed on 6 and 21 June. The entrance, zoo shop and café occupy the buildings of a former farm, and a summer-only outdoor pool and several playgrounds are attached. The site lies northwest of Ystad near the village of Skårby, about 10 km from town.

The entrance, zoo shop and café occupy the buildings of a former farm, and a 600 m² farmhouse stands by the enclosures. The park is a member of the Swedish zoo association. It lies near the village of Skårby, about 10 km northwest of Ystad, and is Sweden's southernmost zoo.
