Duisburg Zoo

Duisburg

Duisburg Zoo was the first zoo in Europe to dare to do something very special in the mid-1990s: koalas can be observed eating here - when the sleepy marsupials are not taking a nap. Those who like things a little more active should pay a visit to the dolphinarium. Here, bottlenose dolphins perform their tricks in dolphin shows.

Stroll through the natural enclosures and meet impressive tigers, graceful zebras and cheerful penguins. Duisburg Zoo offers you the opportunity to experience the diversity of the animal world up close and learn exciting information about their habitats and behavior.

For younger visitors, there are numerous playgrounds and interactive learning stations where children can playfully explore the world of animals. The petting zoo, where they can get very close to the animals, is particularly popular.

Fun fact: Duisburg Zoo is divided into two sections by the A3 highway, which are connected by a wide bridge.
