Miniature “Wonderland” – is a wonderful example of how a hobby turned into a profitable occupation.
It was enough to spend 500 000 person-hours.
A group of enthusiasts working to create a parallel reality in 2000, and today we see the results of their activities.
Twin brothers Frederick and Gerrit Braun wanted to surprise and impress people – and they succeeded in full. They built the longest railroad in Europe. In a nutshell. The project started in 2000.
And in 2001 were born the first quarter of an amazing wonderland – Miniatur Wunderland.
To create this miracle took about 8 million euros. And yet – 700 kg of artificial grass, 4,000 tons of steel and 558,000 hours of painstaking labor.
Today, “Wonderland” is divided into seven thematic parts, covering an area of ??more than 1 thousand square meters. m: Switzerland, Knuffingen, Austria, Harz, Hamburg, America, Scandinavia.
In this world, as in the present, there are concerts, holiday events, there are accidents, strikes, and case of fire, extinguish the fire trucks that come from all parts of the country’s toy.
All objects – trains and cars – are moving, as the real thing.
