Görlitz Zoo was founded 1957 upon the initiative of the mayor of Görlitz, Bruno Gleißberg, and the directors of gardens, Henry Kraft, on the private grounds of the factory owner, Richard Raupach, which was given to the public of Görlitz after 1945. Among the first enclosures was for wild boars and roe deers, a pony stable, and "Bärenzwinger", a cage for brown bears, followed, in the early 1960s, by enclosures for fallow deers, monkeys and a bird aviary, as well as a kitchen to prepare foods for the animals.
