Is the zoo open all year?

Yes, every day including holidays. From November to February the outdoor paths and Afrykarium close at 4pm, and in March and October at 5pm (6pm Friday to Sunday).

The main entrance has a drop-off bay but no parking. The paid Hala Stulecia (Centennial Hall) car park, entered from Kopernika Street, has a footbridge over Wróblewskiego Street to the main entrance.

Is there an entrance from the river?

The Japanese Gate on the Oder riverside opens in the high season only, until the end of September. The rest of the year, use the main entrance on Wróblewskiego Street.

About

Poland's oldest zoo covers 32 hectares by Centennial Hall and keeps more than 12,000 animals from over 1,100 species. The headline is the Afrykarium, an indoor oceanarium given over to African wildlife: sharks and rays, Nile crocodiles, hippos, manatees and penguins.

Elsewhere are the Madagascar pavilion, a terrarium and a children's zoo, and a visit mixes indoor halls with outdoor paths.
