Aquarium de Lourdes

The Lourdes aquarium is devoted to the freshwater fish of France's rivers. The route follows the course of the water, from mountain torrents to the river mouth, and features Pyrenean species in particular, from the gaves down to the Adour estuary.

Each tank offers a close look at fish that are rarely seen, even by people who live by the water: their shape, their colour, the way they feed and hide in their natural habitat.

The visit suits families, nature lovers and school groups who want to learn more about river biodiversity. It is easy to combine with a visit to Lourdes and its surroundings, in the Hautes-Pyrénées. It is wise to check on the official website that the aquarium is open to the public before going.
