The Krafsur Family Lemur Exhibit, also fondly referred to as Lemur Land, is a unique enclosure. The exhibit is situated on a side path that descends along a steep slope, and visitors are welcome to enter the enclosure by passing through double doors. Immediately upon entry, one meets up with four different types of lemur, all of them wandering freely in a broad and spacious enclosure, with no partitions or obstructions coming between them and their human visitors. The residents of Lemur Land include the Ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta), the Brown lemur (Lemur fulvus fulvus), the Black-and-white ruffed lemur (Varecia variegata variegata), and the Red ruffed lemur (Varecia variegata rubra). The exhibit is staffed at all times by keepers, volunteers, or guides, who are always ready to provide explanations regarding the lemurs and their forest habitats on the island of Madagascar.

Whenever you visit the zoo, please note the opening hours for this particular exhibit.

The chapel was built between 1919 and 1924 using funds donated from many different countries. The respective coat-of-arms of each donating country are incorporated into the glass of the ceiling, each in a separate, small dome, and also into the interior mosaics. The countries honored in this way are; starting from the left side, beginning with the apse: Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico; in the middle of the church are memorialized: Italy, France, Spain and the United Kingdom, and to the right: Belgium, Canada, Germany, and the United States of America. The mosaics in the apses were donated by Ireland, Hungary, and Poland. The crown around the bedrock itself was a gift of Australia. These multi-national donations give the church its present title as the Church of "All Nations".
