New Dutch Indoor Amusement Park Bommelwereld to Open in 2025
In Groenlo (Netherlands), near the German border, a new indoor theme park is currently under development next to the N18 highway. The theme park with an area of 9,000 square meters is being developed by Marveld Recreatie – a vacation park with hotel, luxury cabins and pitches – in collaboration with the Toonder company. The Toonder Compagnie holds the rights to the stories by Marten Toonder around the comic duo “Heer Bommel” and “Tom Poes”, who are well-known and part of the cultural heritage in the Netherlands. The world of the comic figures will be brought to life in the theme park.
The drawing above reveals that park visitors can look forward to a large castle, located next to an indoor hall. Various attractions, all thematically based on the adventures of the well-known comic characters, can await guests here. Visitors will then be able to walk through the streets of “Rommeldam” and enjoy the special atmosphere of the Black Mountains as well as the magic of Hocus Pas. Involved in the project is the Dutch design company Jora Vision, which designed the master plan, as well as the landscape design studio Nico Wissling, which together with Van der Heijden Architecten and Civicom is responsible for the landscaping of the park.
