Summer events
During the summer season, we give our visitors a unique experience to attend the daily feeding and demonstrations of marine biology or chemistry.
Aquarium
The Pula Aquarium is located on the Austro-Hungarian fortress Verudela, which was built in 1886 on the peninsula of the same name in the city of Pula. Transforming the fortress into the aquarium has been in progress since 2002. The installation has been set in about 60 pools on the ground floor, the trench, and the first floor of the fortress.
