Zoo Hluboká and its collection

Zoo Hluboká, opened in 1939, is a zoo in Hluboká nad Vltavou, South Bohemian Region, Czech Republic.

The zoo specialises in Palearctic fauna, particularly European and Czech species, while also keeping exotics. It takes part in many national and international breeding programmes for threatened species. It is a subsidised body of the regional authority and uses the Eurasian otter as its emblem.

History

It was founded on the private initiative of Dr Adolf Schwarzenberg and his wife, in the park of the then disused Ohrada hunting lodge. It was ceremonially opened on 1 May 1939 and drew over 33,000 visitors that same year. After the Second World War the state took the zoo and the lodge, passing them among hunting-related bodies under unsatisfactory animal-keeping conditions.

Things to do

Things to do include Animal encounters, Evening guided tours, Wood carving symposium and New playground.
