Antwerp Zoo

Beside Antwerpen-Centraal, Antwerp Zoo combines animal exhibits with the setting of a nineteenth-century zoological garden. It suits a longer stop, especially for travelers already arriving by train.

Antwerp Zoo

Why go

The zoo’s position directly beside the station makes it an easy change of pace from central Antwerp’s churches and museums. Its historic garden setting is part of the appeal, while the reef aquarium and daily animal presentations offer distinct things to explore beyond a general walk among enclosures.

What to look for

  • The reef aquarium offers a close look at marine habitats.
  • Historic zoological buildings recall the garden’s nineteenth-century origins.
  • Keeper talks and feeding moments add context to selected animals.

Useful to know

  • Pair the zoo with a look inside Antwerpen-Centraal; the two entrances are close together.
  • Consult the zoo’s daily programme if a keeper talk matters to your visit.
