Animals in good spirits at Schönbrunn Zoo

Helpful facts

Schönbrunn Zoo was founded in 1752, making it the oldest existing zoo in the world. As the only preserved baroque menagerie, it can look back on an interesting past and yet today, with its more than 700 animal species - some of which are threatened with extinction - it is one of the most modern zoos in the world. The zoo is also part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Schönbrunn and has received several awards as the best zoo in Europe.

Special highlights are the unique breeding successes - such as the giant pandas.
