Reptilium Terrarium and Desert Zoo Landau

Highlight • Structure

According to its own information, it is the largest reptile zoo in Germany. A small, well-kept zoo with many different species of reptiles. The terrariums are (in my opinion) big enough, varied in design and the panes are very clean (many other zoos can learn a thing or two from this).
There is the terrarium hall, the desert hall (with tables and chairs), the nocturnal animal house and the baby station (which is unfortunately closed due to the corona). Outside there is a children's playground and several enclosures with native reptiles.
The entrance fees are not cheap, but reasonable. You can see everything in 30 minutes, but you can also easily spend 2 to 3 hours in the Reptilium. A lot is done for children to get them excited about such animals. Every hour some kind of animal is presented / fed. It is very warm in the Reptilium - a T-shirt is sufficient even in winter.

Südpark Landau

Highlight • Natural

If you want to go in from the south to Landau or out from Landau from the north, you should walk over the former LGS site. Traffic-calmed and with good paths, the area is great for walking. It extends from the entrance in the north over the tower in the south to the new sports center in the east.

Landau Art Nouveau Festival Hall (portal)

Highlight • Monument

The Landau Festival Hall is one of the most important Art Nouveau festival and theater buildings in southern Germany. It was built between 1905 and 1907 by the Düsseldorf architect Hermann Goerke in the style of South German Art Nouveau. While the picturesque exterior remained largely untouched over the decades, the interior underwent extensive alterations during renovations in 1958/59 and 1971/72, which significantly compromised the original Art Nouveau ensemble. The comprehensive restoration from 1999 to 2001 successfully restored the original spatial design of the Great and Small Halls. In this way, the lost Gesamtkunstwerk (total work of art) was successfully reconstructed.
