Bakken
Dyrehavsbakken is the world's oldest amusement park. In 1583 Kirsten Piil found a spring here. People came from far and wide and where there are people there are jesters. And that's how it all begun.
In 1669 the king decided to establish his royal hunting-grounds here. Today there still are some 2000 deer and bucks descending from that very same royal stock. At the beginning of November the Hubertus hunt is held here.
Bakken the amusement park has everything any grown-up or kid could ever want from a place like this. |
