Movie Park Germany is a theme park in Bottrop-Kirchhellen in western Germany, 50 km (30 mi) north of Düsseldorf. It consists of 7 areas based on the topic "fascination film".HistoryThe park was opened in June 1996 as "Warner Bros. Movie World Germany" on the former location of the "Traumlandpark" amusement park, which had already replaced an earlier attraction called "Märchenwald". During the time from 1992 to 1993, a short lived theme park called "Bavaria Filmpark" existed in this location as well. The laying of the cornerstone was in May 1994.At the end of 1999, Warner Bros. sold the park to Premier Parks (now Six Flags). Premier Parks continued to license the Warner Bros. Movie World name.In 2004, the park was acquired by StarParks, a subsidiary of Palamon Capital Partners. This led to the name of the park being changed into "Movie Park Germany" in 2005, with the Warner Bros. theming removed from the park and replaced by newer themes from 20th Century Fox, MGM, and Nickelodeon. Later included AMC's The Walking Dead.In 2010, Parques Reunidos bought the park from Palamon Capital Partners. No changes to the park's name or theming occurred.AttractionsThe park is divided up into 7 areas each with their own collection of attractions.Hollywood Street SetBermuda Triangle: Alien Encounter – Intamin spillwater.
