Leipzig Wildlife Park

Highlight • Structure

One of the most attractive recreational areas in Leipzig is the Wildpark Leipzig in the southern floodplain forest. On the approx. 46 ha large area about 25 animal species with approx. 250 animals are kept.

As a result, the wildlife park Connewitz complements the animal species composition with other livestock facilities in the city of Leipzig such as the Zoo Leipzig, which shows superficially exotic animals, or the pet zoo of the company Bauersfeld, where visitors can see different domestic breeds.

The game park understands itself (also) as a "PR agency" for native animals and nature. It is his goal to promote species and habitat protection. The wildlife park is also an information center for the local wildlife, offers the opportunity to conduct research and is of course an attractive recreational space for visitors.

In the past, significant parts of the floodplain forest south of Leipzig were destroyed for the purpose of open-cast lignite mining. The lowering of the groundwater, which was necessary during lignite mining, also led to the further drying out of the forest area. Originally, it was even planned to excavate the forest up to Richard-Lehmann-Straße in order to extract the lignite underneath. Fortunately, the successful protests of the citizens' initiative "Stop Cospuden 1990" led to the cessation of mining in 1992.
