Escher Déierepark

The Escher Déierepark, located on the Galgenberg in Esch-sur-Alzette, is an idyllic sanctuary that focuses on the encounter between humans and animals. Covering an area of about two hectares, the park is home to around 150 animals, with an emphasis on native and domesticated species. Visitors can observe red deer, goats, sheep, and rabbits in a near-natural environment. The park is particularly popular with families as it provides free admission and includes a petting zoo and educational programs. The facility is harmoniously integrated into the city forest and features numerous hiking trails that invite relaxed walks. The park's concept aims to raise awareness of local fauna and the importance of agricultural traditions. An attached café and thematic play areas complete the offering. The Déierepark is not only a place of recreation but also an important educational site for schools and kindergartens in the region.
