Aquarium Berlin
Aquarium Berlin is a stand-alone attraction at Zoo Berlin in Tiergarten Park. We feature Zoo Berlin on a separate page.
You can visit the Berlin Aquarium without seeing the Zoo, but if you buy a combination ticket, you can see both for significantly less than the price of individual tickets.
Built in 1913, it's one of the largest aquariums in Germany. The exhibits take up three floors with over 9000 animals covering 800 species. About 250 plant species integrated into the exhibits provide habitat for the animals and insects.
On the lower floor you will discover fish, coral reefs, jellyfish, seahorses, and the giant 260,000 litre Shark Tank containing blacktip reef sharks, hammerhead sharks and nurse sharks.
On the second level you will be intrigued by a large assortment of reptiles in Crocodile Hall. Besides crocodiles, you will discover a variety of turtles, caiman lizards, gharials, snakes and even butterflies.
The top level of the aquarium houses an insectarium featuring amphibians and insects including frogs, ants, tarantulas, and praying mantis.
Be sure to include a visit to this world-class aquarium in your travel itinerary.

Aquarium Berlin Reviews
Rated out of 5![]()
recently visited the Berlin Aquarium and had a fantastic experience. The variety of marine life on display is truly impressive — from vibrant tropical fish to mesmerizing jellyfish and fascinating reptiles. The exhibits are well-designed, informative, and enjoyable for both adults and children.
What I appreciated most was how clean and well-maintained the entire place is. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the animals. It’s easy to spend a couple of hours wandering through the different sections, each offering something new and exciting to discover.
Overall, the Berlin Aquarium is a wonderful place to visit, whether you’re a tourist or a local. Highly recommended for anyone interested in nature and underwater life!

Great place for everyone. We visited the zoo and went there during our trip. We really enjoyed the exhibition, but unfortunately, the second floor was closed during our visit. As a single attraction, I would say it's small, you can walk through it in one hour, but it's a great addition to visit in the zoo.

It’s fascinating to feel like a sea diver, observing various species of aquatic animals, amphibians, and reptiles. Each floor of the building showcases a different class of the animal kingdom. It’s worth every penny spent!

3 etages of very nice collections, the first one is the fishes, then the reptiles and other ones in the second and third. I spent more time in the fishes one, it was just fascinating. And there are some sharks! (And also you can see the lions from the window!).
