Dierenpark & Reptielenhuis de Oliemeulen (Zoo & Reptile House of Oliemeulen) is a small zoo in Tilburg, the Netherlands that describes itself as "the strangest zoo in the Netherlands".[3]

The zoo opened in an old farmhouse in 1987. It was initially just a reptile house, but was expanded in 1992 to include mammals such as monkeys and racoons, and birds including parrots and birds of prey.[1]
