The Dessau Zoo (German: Tierpark Dessau) is a municipally owned zoo in Dessau, Germany which was founded in 1958. It is located in a park that surrounds the former mausoleum of the Dukes of Anhalt.

About 500 animals from 120 species are visited by around 100,000 guests per year.

Most of the animals are of European origin, like wolves, goats and donkeys but the zoo also shows exotic species like kangaroos, llamas and jaguars.

The terrarium is home to Europe's oldest reticulated python, almost 7 meters long.
