Tierpark Berlin Opens 70th Anniversary Exhibition Showcasing Iconic Posters

The exhibition features 52 advertising posters spanning 1955 to 2013, reflecting evolving cultural perspectives on animals and the park’s legacy.

Tierpark Berlin has launched its 70th anniversary celebrations with a special exhibition of 52 iconic advertising posters from its history.
The posters, ranging from playful bear cubs in 1955 to striking illustrations like 'Schwarzer Panther,' highlight the evolution of animal imagery in advertising.
The exhibition reinterprets the park's legacy through an artistic lens, presenting the posters as cultural artifacts and historical records.
Founded in 1955 by Heinrich Dathe, Tierpark Berlin became a cultural emblem during the DDR era, with its legacy now reimagined under current director Andreas Knieriem.
Additional anniversary events include guided tours, concerts at the Schloss, and a photo competition celebrating the park's 70-year history.
