The zoo and fossilium in Bochum has a size of approx. 1.9 hectares. It is located in the city park and shows around 3,900 animals in a good 330 species in facilities that are accessible all year round. The Bochum zoo - small but nice!
Other destinations such as the German Mining Museum Bochum and the Zeiss Planetarium Bochum are in the immediate vicinity.
