Nevigtstraße closed: New adventure farm in the Chemnitz zoo!

in Chemnitz a lot is happening, and especially in the zoo! Here is the construction of an adventure farm on the agenda, a new attraction that will inspire both large and small visitors. The construction work has already started and are carried out in two phases. It is planned to make endangered local pet breeds such as Erzgebirge goats and saddle pigs. Visitors can even stroll directly through some enclosures and also get an insight into the agriculture of the past.

The completion of the first construction phase, which includes the dismantling of old systems and the creation of new paths and shelters for the animals, is scheduled for the second quarter of 2025. In this context, the city of Chemnitz is investing a total of 350,000 euros: 250,000 euros for the first part, and an additional 100,000 euros for new turntables, such as Tierpark-chemnitz.de. The second part of the project is made by the Förderverein Tierparkfreunde Chemnitz e. V. realized, who continues to seek support.

But the construction also brings restrictions. Nevigtstraße is expected to be closed due to the renewal of a wastewater connection from July 28th to August 22, 2025. A detour is set up, so that access to the parking lot is only possible via Zwickauer Straße. The accessibility to the zoo remains preserved, but the parking spaces can only be reached via Unritzstrasse. Pedestrians can still use access to the zoo, such as chemnitz.de emphasized.

The entire undertaking is part of a master plan for the further development of the Chemnitz zoo. The aim is to increase the attractiveness of the park as well as to make an important contribution to the preservation of regional pet breeds.

a festival for the future

The start of construction was celebrated with a symbolic tapping of hay fork, in which the board and many sponsors and supporters were present. With a bright sunshine, the starting signal for a project was to enrich Chemnitz and the surrounding area, confirms the swg-chemnitz.de.

So if you want to contribute something to the success of the adventure farm, you will find information online for support. A good hand in terms of construction and the commitment of the citizens is urgently needed! Incidentally, the summer season in the zoo started - the zoo is open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., the Wildgatter until 6 p.m., so that nothing should stand in the way of a visit to the wildlife.
