The Győr Zoo is the perfect destination for a day trip—and even more. Here, fun, learning, and wildlife conservation come together. Our goal is to bring you closer to the animal world while actively participating in international species conservation programs and environmental education.
During our programs, you can observe the animals up close, and in some experiences, even interact with them directly.
When visiting Győr, it’s worth spending several days exploring the area—from the baroque city center to the nearby thermal baths, and all the way to nature-rich zoo experiences. For more information, explore our recommendations and programs.
Our zoo has expanded with a new, experience-focused exhibition area, where visitors can get up close and personal with traditional farm animals.
The aim of this new space is not only entertainment, but also education – especially for the younger generation.
The Győr Zoo family has grown with more tiny newcomers! After our meerkats and capybaras, newborn Indian crested porcupines have now arrived as well—and they’ve already stolen the hearts of their keepers.

The scientific community learned with deep sorrow of the passing of Dr. Birutė Mary Galdikas, who died at the age of 80. The world-renowned anthropologist and primatologist of Lithuanian origin devoted her life to the study and protection of orangutans, and through her work left a lasting impact on the fields of nature conservation and ethology.
On March 18, we celebrate Global Recycling Day, which highlights the fact that waste is not necessarily garbage – in many cases, it is a valuable resource that can be given new life with proper handling. This mindset is playing an increasingly important role in the daily operations of zoos as well.

The first, zoo-like institution was created in the Bishop’s Forest in 1962, close to the lumber yard. The zoo was established on the floodplains of Moson-Danube in order to show the species of game and predators. Even a brown bear was there on show. The animal park of the Forestry was functioning until 1966: in accordance with recollections it was a zoo with significant attendance, but there are no records to prove it.
