Allwetterzoo Münster
A large zoo on the southern shore of Aasee. Its exhibits are linked by covered walkways, so you can visit even in the rain. Great for families.
“All-weather” refers to the main exhibition halls being connected by covered passages. The zoo houses about 200 species, including elephants, orangutans, seals, and penguins. It also includes the Westphalian Horse Museum. Admission is about 24 euros, and children pay roughly half. Take bus line 14, or cycle about 20 minutes from the old town along Aasee.
Opening hours
9:00 am–6:00 pm (earlier closing in winter)
