Current Restrictions

Like at any modern zoo, work at Zoo Berlin is never really done. We are constantly trying to improve the zoo to make it a better place and more beautiful for animals and visitors alike. That is why you may come across construction work during your visit. Below you can find information on current construction projects and other restrictions.

Construction works in the Aquarium

In the course of a general modernization, there are construction works in the Aquarium that cause restrictions – the following areas are affected currently:

  • The street entrance of the Aquarium is closed. The Aquarium can only be entered via the Zoo’s Elefantentor entrance. Please also note the signage on site.
  • Unfortunately, no guided tours or workshops can be offered at the Aquarium currently. Only the animal encounters with the sharks continue to take place. There are no restrictions on the guided tour program at Zoo and Tierpark Berlin. Please find further information here or here.
  • The second floor is closed. This affects all reptile terrariums and the restaurant. The first and thrid floors – the underwater world as well as the home of insects and amphibians – are open as usual.

Please note that these restrictions are subject to change at short notice.

Antelope House

Due to extensive renovation and refurbishment work, the Antelope House will be closed to visitors from July 14, 2025, until approximately mid-September. During this period, the exhibition in the entrance hall will also be temporarily closed.
