Vogelpark Niendorf — Zoo in Timmendorfer Strand

Vogelpark Niendorf and its collection

Vogelpark Niendorf is a zoo in Niendorf, Germany.

More than 1,000 birds of over 250 species are kept on seven hectares, of which 0.2 hectares is aviaries. A path network of a good two kilometres runs past the enclosures and thatched animal houses. The ground lies in the Aalbeek lowland linking the Hemmelsdorfer See with the Baltic, which suits waders and waterbirds.

History

The park was set up in 1973 under Felix Gräfe. Klaus Langfeldt took it over in June 1983, moving his large bird collection there from Bad Schwartau. Two years of building work enlarged the grounds before the reopening, dated to July 1985.

Animals and collection

The owl holding of 150 birds in 47 species is billed as the world's biggest, and the stork holding of 15 species as the biggest in Europe. Young birds are also reared here.
