Ueckermünde Zoo

Ueckermünde Zoo

Ueckermünde Zoo is a zoo located on the shores of Lake Stettin in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. Nearly 400 animals reside in its naturally designed enclosures. Therefore, when planning your trip, be sure to allocate plenty of time to take in the sights of this vast 180,000-square-meter playground.

Unlike other zoos, some areas of Ueckermünde Zoo allow visitors to enter. These include the monkey forest, home to the gentle Barbary macaques; the tropical savannah, where ring-tailed lemurs live; the deer park, inhabited by European mouflon and fallow deer; and the petting area, where you can meet dwarf goats. There are also numerous play zones and educational exhibits that are a paradise for children. Are you up for a challenge climbing the 45-meter-long tunnel alongside the Barbary macaques?

For those interested in regional history, Ueckermünde Zoo also offers plenty of information about the glacial formation of the Lake Stettin area or the use of solar energy. The zoo has been awarded the “Quality Seal for Certified Holiday Quality” by the Tourism Association of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern twice, earning high praise from visitors.
