Europa-Park | |||
1 | Europa-Park is
the largest theme park in Germany and the second most popular theme park resort in Europe, following Disneyland Paris. | ||
5 | The park is home
to eleven roller coasters, the oldest being the Alpenexpress, where a powered coaster speeds through a diamond mine, and the newest coaster named Wodan, a wooden roller coaster. Europa-Park has a huge number of roller coasters and attractions. It can accomodate up to 50,000 guests per day. There are about 4.5 million visitors a year. | ||
10 15 | Europa-Park is
run by Mack familiy, who have produced vehicles since 1780, circus wagons since 1880 and roller coasters since 1921. In 1958 Franz Mack took over the family firm together with his brothers. With his son Roland he visited the USA in 1972 and was inspired to open a theme park in Germany, as an exhibition site for his com- pany´s products. At first the park was planned to be located in Breisach. The Breisach site did not seem suitable because there was the risk of floods, and the project was moved some 30 km further north, where the Macks bought the park of the historical castle in Rust. The park opened in 1975 with an area of 16 hectares. It counted 250,000 visitors in the first year, 700,000 in the second, passing the million mark in 1978. | ||
20 | The first
country-themed section was "Italy", which opened in 1982. The
"Europe" theme was pursued further with the opening of "Holland", "England", "France", "Scandinavia" and "Spain" sections. By the year 2000 the number of visitors had risen to 3 million and the hotels had been booked to nearly 98% of their capacity. In the meantime the park also opens during the winter season. | ||
Every year more
attractions are added. These include small family drop tower rides,
car- ousels, slides, themed villages, retail outlets and catering establishments. The theme work and landscaping are ongoing, too. | |||
25 | Plans have been
made to build a major 33 hectare water park, located 1 km away from the theme park, on the road between Europa-Park and the A5 motorway. It will cost approximately € 100 million and will become one of the largest water parks in Europe. | ||
