Vintage Zoopark Hodonin Stick Pin Badge Czech Retro Enamel Ram Souvenir

The item is made from a vintage gold-colored metal and features a shield-shaped badge face measuring exactly 2.5 centimeters in height. The front displays a multi-layered enameled design produced across a variety of distinct collectible color combinations. Its primary attachment style utilizes a long, slender stick-pin fastener affixed directly to the rear of the badge, designed to slide seamlessly into jacket lapels.


Historically, these badges were produced during the 1980s as official promotional souvenirs for the Zoopark Hodonín, a popular wildlife facility located in the South Moravian Region of what is now the Czech Republic. The badges capture a very specific historical window for the institution; originally founded in the 1970s as a modest "zookoutek" (zoo-corner), the facility officially earned the elevated status of Zoopark in 1982 before expanding into a full zoological garden in 1992. To explore more about the history and current exhibitions of the facility, you can check out the official Zoo Hodonín Website or look over its historical growth and modern recovery milestones on the Hodonín Zoo Wikipedia Page.
