The story behind the day out
Brick-built worlds arrive in Günzburg
LEGOLAND Deutschland opened in Günzburg on 17 May 2002. The operator records forty attractions, shows and workshops across seven themed areas at opening. LEGO-built models were central to the concept, making construction and miniature representation part of the park’s identity. The opening belongs to a specific development in Bavaria, distinct from the much earlier LEGOLAND park at Billund in Denmark.
