Knie's Kinderzoo is a family zoo with deep roots in Rapperswil and the Swiss circus world. It is designed for close-up animal encounters, childrens activities, and an easy half-day rather than a sprawling zoological expedition.
For adults travelling without children it is optional, but families will find it one of the simplest wins in town. Its central location also makes it easy to combine with the lakefront and Rapperswil Castle.
