Papilonia Liberec Butterfly House
Butterfly house with a crashed plane
Set out on an expedition to the jungle, where you will make a surprising discovery! Papilonia Liberec will take you on an adventure to the heart of the jungle, where a crashed plane rests as an uninvited guest among the hundreds of fluttering butterflies, lending this Butterfly House an unrepeatable atmosphere. Part of the exhibit is a photo booth, allowing you to take a picture with a butterfly on a snow-white backdrop.

You will see butterflies that live in the rainforests of the Amazon basin to Mexico, sub-Saharan Africa, to the Philippines, Thailand and Malaysia. In Papilonia, you will feel like you are on an exotic holiday, because there is a hot temperature and air humidity here.
