Exploding costs for planning and construction: Anima Tierwelt is out of action

04 November 2019, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Sasbachwalden: The construction site sign on the site of the planned Anima animal world in Sasbachwalden. In the background existing building substance of the former sanatorium at the Breitenbrunnen. In view of exploding construction and planning costs, the "Anima Tierwelt" of Grundig heiress M. Wruck is on the verge of collapse. It is foreseeable that the starting capital of about 20 million euros will not suffice, the responsible Anima Foundation announced on Monday. That is why the decision to take this step was taken with a heavy heart. So far, a higher single-digit million amount has been invested.
