What you can experience here

In the heart of Kruger National Park you can encounter the most exceptional elephants of the park in the Letaba Elephant Hall. This exhibition is dedicated to the legendary bulls whose tusks were so enormous that they became icons of the African wilderness. Here you find out what made these animals so special and why their stories are still so fascinating today.

The Elephant Hall displays the impressive tusks of almost all the legendary elephant bulls that once roamed Kruger. You stand before the original remains of these majestic animals and can grasp their sheer size. A complete elephant skeleton illustrates the anatomy of these giants, while a replica of an elephant heart shows the power contained in these bodies. Informative displays and life-size statues make the museum a place where you can really understand the biology and history of elephants.
