Since it opened in 1980, the Parc Animalier de Sainte-Croix has been committed to conservation and environmental education. It is home to more than 1,500 animals belonging to around 100 species, mainly European.

Visitors can observe these animals in conditions close to their natural habitat, making it both an educational and fascinating experience.


The Parc Animalier de Sainte-Croix offers a variety of activities that allow visitors to connect with nature.

The park also offers the possibility of unusual stays, such as nights in themed lodges, allowing visitors to wake up to the sound of wolves calling or deer bellowing.
Environmental education is at the heart of the park's mission. Educational workshops are offered for children and schools, aimed at raising awareness among younger generations of the importance of conserving biodiversity. The park also organises special events and conservation programmes throughout the year, reinforcing its role as a leader in the protection of European wildlife.
