History of the Theme Park
The park opened in 1996 as Warner Bros. Movie World. Over the years, it was home to Bugs Bunny and Batman. In 2005, after changing ownership to the Palamon Capital group, the park underwent a rebranding and became Movie Park Germany. Since 2010, it has been owned by the Spanish group Parques Reunidos. Despite losing some of its Warner licenses, the park has adapted well to its new reality, introducing its own unique brands and collaborating with giants such as Nickelodeon and CBS.
