As a nature-loving hunter, entrepreneur Adolf Braun was tempted to set up a wildlife park in the early XNUMXs. He acquired the Steinwasen site on which the rural inn "Zum Steinwasen" stood. The area offers a unique natural scenery and in earlier times the post office was already located here.
When planning and designing the wildlife park, Adolf Braun was supported by recognized wildlife biologists.
