Falkenhof im Wisentgehege

Falkenhof Wisentgehege Springe is a falconry centre in Springe, Germany, combining the long-standing tradition of falconry with wildlife conservation and environmental education. Located at the Wisentgehege, the centre has been welcoming visitors since 2002 and is home to more than 80 birds of prey and owls. Its experienced falconers introduce guests to the birds’ behaviour, hunting and navigation skills, ecological roles, and the importance of protecting their habitats.

The Falkenhof offers flight demonstrations and personal falconry experiences, including the “kleine Auszeit” programme, as well as celebrations, school activities, nature experiences, and educational sessions. Visitors can also learn about the centre’s rescue station for injured birds of prey and owls, which works in cooperation with the University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover. Through demonstrations and direct encounters, the team connects visitors with wildlife and conservation. Supporters can contribute through animal sponsorships, helping care for the centre’s birds and sustain its work in falconry, education, and species protection.
