After the first time in 2008, Salzburg has once again been chosen to hosts the ‘World Taxidermy Championship®’. In 2011 the event was held in Missouri, USA.

Explore the fascinating world of animal exhibits! Enjoy a wide range of wild animals presented in true-to-life poses and backgrounds giving visitors a fascinating and authentic insight into the lives of these creatures. It’s like the feeling of being in a natural history museum.

The exhibition of animal world dioramas is the central attraction for visitors to the world championship.

Seize the opportunity provided by this unique showcase and be part of a great event! It’s a journey into the world of animals for the entire family!
