Built on typical nineteenth-century models of mills in Po river Delta area, the Owl Mill represents the refuge of diurnal and nocturnal birds of prey, guests of Oltremare Park.
Inside there are no rooms, but aviaries that are home to several species: owls, barn owls, eagles, hawks, kestrels, buzzards, vultures and griffins.
These birds of prey are all born in a controlled environment, and are monitored daily by the attentive care of expert falconers and park's staff of biologists and veterinarians.
It is from Owl Mill that the exciting “Volo dei Rapaci” begins, a demonstration of flight and hunting in which birds of prey dart over the heads and in front of the amazed eyes of young and old.
