plan of the Brandes-Haus with originally intended animals. There were crowned lemurs instead of Saki/Aguti, Prevosts squirrel instead of mousedeer and no koala.

Could somebody please translate what "Prof. Brandes-Haus" means in English? I tried the Google German-English translator on the description of this building on the zoo's website and still couldn't really figure out what this is. Is it a general tropical house covering all rain forests of the world? Any info will be appreciated.

I haven't visited but 'Prof. Brandes-Haus' just means 'The Professor Brandes House' - Brandes was a former director of the zoo: Prof. Brandes | Tiere zum Anfassen nah - im Zoo Dresden
 
This is, essentially, a primate house, with a few add-ons. And it is quite excellent! One of the very best things in this thoroughly decent zoo.
