Vienna in Your Hands: TiergartenCraft
From Schönbrunn Zoo to Minecraft in Vienna
From Schönbrunn Zoo to Minecraft in Vienna
A Unique Minecraft Architecture Experience
In this distinctive Minecraft camp, children design, plan, and build with real purpose.
Working from authentic measurements and reference photography collected during on-site visits, participants recreate selected areas of the zoo within Minecraft.
Along the way, they explore:
▪️ How animal habitats are thoughtfully designed
▪️ How space, scale, and proportion shape architectural thinking
▪️ The role of modern zoos in conservation and education
▪️ The evolution of the imperial zoo - from an 18th-century royal menagerie to today’s Tiergarten Schönbrunn
This programme brings together architecture, history, environmental awareness, and digital creativity in one inspiring week.
We provide a balanced, carefully designed programme that combines focused digital work with outdoor exploration and reflection.
