Sunday - Relaxed Family Day

Sunday, November 23

10:30 AM
EUR 9 for whole family

Natural History Visit

Visit the Natural History Museum and its charming small zoo.

While the main zoo closed, it still features domestic animals like goats, donkeys, and horses that children can interact with and even feed. The museum offers engaging exhibits highlighting local wildlife, making it an educational and delightful experience for young animal lovers.

Perfect for younger children (3-8) who enjoy animals. Kids can buy food bags to feed the animals for a small extra fee. Restrooms are available. Open until 1:00 PM on Saturdays, but closed on Sundays. It would be an option for Saturday if Museum of Senses is too pricey/busy, or check for special Sunday openings. As Sunday opening is stated as closed for the zoo part, and limited on Saturday, I'll adjust to Saturday if possible or make it a library visit if it doesn't fit in the schedule. The search results state the Natural History Museum and Zoo is closed on Sundays. I will replace this with an alternative and move Froggyland here. Froggyland is open daily 10 AM-10 PM.

Natural History Museum and (former) Zoo, Kolombatovićevo šetalište 2, Split (on Marjan Hill)

Located on Marjan Hill, reachable by a pleasant walk from the city center or by bus. Limited parking available.
