Ostrava Zoo, (Zoologická zahrada Ostrava) is a zoo, located in Ostrava in the Czech Republic.[1]

Ostrava Zoo was founded as Kunčičky Zoo in 1951, on an area called the Miners' Park in Ostrava-Kunčičky. But already in 1956 construction of the new zoo in Stromovka park was undertaken, and in 1960 the zoo and animals were transferred to Stromovka park.[1]

In 1996 Ostrava Zoo became a member in the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA).[1] Ostrava Zoo is open every day from 9:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m.[3]
