Photo: Pexels Set in the ruins of Kintzheim castle, the Volerie des Aigles presents eagles, vultures, falcons and other raptors in free-flight shows. The birds swoop above the audience in a medieval setting overlooking the Alsace plain.
Beyond the show, the visit raises awareness of how to protect these birds. The nearby Montagne des Singes and Cigoland round off the outing perfectly.
💡 Good to know
Arrive a little before the free-flight show to get a good spot: the raptors fly just over the audience.
