history
The history of the park goes back to the 17th century. The Kollmann family developed a pub from a country farm . During the Second World War , the Pundt family took over the inn. A private zoo was opened in 1950, but in the 1980s it no longer met the increased demands on zoo keeping. In November 1995 the Ludewigt family from Oldenburg took over the zoo and reopened it at Easter 1996 with a new concept. Additional theme parks have sprung up over the years.
In autumn 2007 the Jaderpark was featured in the ARD zoo docu soap Seehund, Puma & Co. , produced by Radio Bremen . A second season ran the following year, the third from April 2010.
