About Kaiserslautern Zoo
Zoo Kaiserslautern, founded in 1968 as Tierpark Siegelbach, holds around 112 species and more than 500 animals on seven hectares in the Siegelbach district, with a nature trail running through it. A group of Asian small-clawed otters sits right at the main entrance, opposite a walk-through enclosure with Bennett's wallabies. The 1,100 sq m lemur enclosure, opened in 2016, is a walk-through too - nine ring-tailed lemurs share it with a pair of white storks that built their nest there.
The savannah, opened for the zoo's 50th anniversary in 2018, holds zebras, ostriches and eland; the tropical house keeps squirrel monkeys, sloths that move freely above visitors' heads, reptiles and piranhas; and a modern falconry houses the birds of prey, which are shown in flight demonstrations. Germany's first zoo kindergarten opened here in June 2024, and the zoo is a recognised out-of-school place of learning. The ring-tailed lemur replaced the tiger as the zoo's emblem in 2018.
