The Hoyerswerda Zoo (Tierpark Hoyerswerda) is a zoological garden in Hoyerswerda. The founding began with the initiative of a nature lover who settled some exotic ducks and swans on the castle moat in the early 1950s. Inspired by this idea, Günter Peters, the then director of the museum in the castle, built the first animal enclosures with helpers from the National Development Works. Since 1994, the Hoyerswerda Zoo has emerged from the former zoo. One of the biggest attractions is the new tropical house, which opened in 1997.
