The history of the Amnéville Zoo

Amnéville Zoo opened its doors in 1986, founded by a group of entrepreneurs passionate about wildlife and species conservation. In its early days, the park had a small collection of animals, but it quickly grew to become one of the largest zoos in Europe.

A major turning point in its development was the expansion of its facilities, providing larger spaces better suited to the animals' needs. In 1997, the zoo welcomed its first white lion, a landmark event that reinforced its reputation. Over the years, attractions such as the bird of prey show and conservation programmes have been added, making the zoo not only a place of entertainment, but also an educational centre committed to protecting biodiversity.

Today, Amnéville Zoo continues to evolve, attracting more than 500,000 visitors each year, while emphasising the protection of biodiversity through various research and conservation initiatives.
