A view into the Giraffe House in Magdeburg Zoo. In here lives a group of rothschild?s giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis rothschildi). A standard house with a light and airy atmosphere.

The Giraffe House opened in 1991 and was built in 110 hours as part of a reality show. Probably a record in Giraffe House building speed.

This looks like a really nice, light, airy, natural giraffe house, and one that holds up well 20+ years after construction. Is that a reasonable assessment?
 
I would say so, yes. It is very nice from a visitor perspective. From a management perspective I would say that to floor looks a little too smooth but that is a minor detail. The covered area outside the house is a very nice touch though that would allow giraffes outside all throughout the year.
