Gorilla Kingdom consists of a large open island, surrounded by a moat, an indoor "gym" and a back den.
Three western lowland gorillas will live in the enclosure: Bobby, a 23-year-old male; and two females, Zaire, 32, and Effie who is 13.
The £5.3m project means that Bobby can see the sky without bars for the first time since he was captured as a baby.
