Dierenpark Tilburg

The Tilburgs Dierenpark was a zoo at the Bredaseweg in Tilburg, Netherlands.

History
The park opened its doors in 1932 as a wedding present from Johan Burgers (the founder of Royal Burgers' Zoo) to his daughter and her husband from Tilburg. In 1946 the park was sold to C. van Dijk & Sons who helped to develop the park as well. The park was closed in 1973.
