Europa-Park is the most popular theme park in Germany. Having well over 4 million visitors in 2009, it is the most popular seasonal theme park in the world and is only behind Disneyland Park at Disneyland Paris resort (which opens year-round) in Europe. Europa-Park is located in Rust, Baden Wuerttemberg, Germany. The park is split into fifteen different areas, mostly named after European countries or regions. Europa-Park is run by the Mack family, which have produced vehicles since 1780, circus wagons since 1880 and roller coasters since 1921. The park was opened in 1975 as a showcase for many of their different ride models - for example, the Wild Mouse roller coaster. It has thirteen roller coasters.
