Depending on your point of view. Families with small children in particular are on the move between the Kurpfalz Coaster and the wolf enclosure. Peter Braun Jr. knows every path, every animal and every stone here. <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Growing up in an amusement park sounds like a childhood dream. For Peter Braun Jr., however, it was simply everyday life. \u201cI didn&#8217;t know it any other way, it was normal for me.\u201d His father runs the Kurpfalz-Park near Wachenheim together with Andreas Teipelmann. After school, on weekends and during holidays: He was always here. \u201cWe rarely went on holiday as a family. It simply wasn\u2019t possible in the middle of the high season. At most, we went away for a week in winter.\u201d Of course, he also went on the summer toboggan run and spent time playing on the playgrounds. But his favourite places were the falconry and the puppeteers. He would then sit backstage and watch the plays from there, almost all of which he knew by heart. \u201cI remember saying to my uncle at the time: when I grow up, I&#8217;m going to be a puppeteer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/022_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/022_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31065\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/022_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/022_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/022_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>One of his favourite places even today: Peter Braun Jr. watches the falconer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">.But he went on to train as an office administrator\u2014right in the park. \u201cMy parents always left open the opportunity for my sister and me to join here if we wanted to. And honestly\u2014I don\u2019t know what I\u2019d rather do.\u201d In a few years, when his father retires, he will take over the park. Despite long hours and despite the seven-day work week in the summer. \u201cSure, you have to want to do it. But the job is so varied\u2014I could neither sit in the office all the time nor work outside all the time. Working in the park I have both and I always meet friendly people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/007_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/007_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/007_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/007_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/007_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Wutzel, the wild boar, is the mascot of the Kurpfalz-Park.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A moment ago he was sitting at the till, which his mother Carmen now takes over, while his father disappears into a meeting. His sister Dominique, who does the administrative work, has her day off today\u2014and spends it with her little daughter in the park. The park is a family business. Even the puppeteers have performed their plays for three successive generations. The puppeteers\u2019 witch Sauerkraut is just as much a part of the park as the wild boar Wutzel, who greets the guests at the entrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The grounds were opened in 1970, at that time still as a game conservation park. Bit by bit, playgrounds and fairground rides were added. The Schulte-Wrede operating group at the time leased more and more forestland from the town of Wachenheim. In 1989, Peter Braun Sr. took over the position of managing director. Rather by chance. He is a trained machine fitter and was looking for a job near his hometown of Lambrecht. He hadn\u2019t had much to do with amusement parks before. But he quickly learned the ropes. Soon he could no longer imagine his life without the park, the animals and especially the people there. When the operating group had to file for bankruptcy in 2005, he put all his eggs in one basket and took over the park together with Andreas Teipelmann.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>We have only rides that work for the whole family<\/p><cite>Peter Braun jr.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The park was getting on in years, many things had been neglected due to the bankruptcy. The new owners invested a lot and got the park back into good lick. \u201cIt took a while until the visitors came back,\u201d says Peter Braun Jr. \u201cA reputation can be ruined much faster than it can be restored.\u201d But their business partners believed in the concept. They believed that the niche between amusement park and wildlife park would work\u2014also, or especially in today\u2019s fast-moving times. And the park\u2019s charm was to be preserved. They renewed things where necessary, but always with great care. Many details are still reminiscent of the 1970s and the new merry-go-ground named Piratenflug revels in nostalgia, as does Hollino the Clown, who drives through the park between his shows with indestructible good humour in a little vintage car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/055_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/055_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/055_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/055_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/055_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Hollino the Clown entertains children in the park making jokes and balloon animals between shows.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Peter Braun Jr. doesn\u2019t want to change anything either. \u201cThis charm makes our park special. There won\u2019t be any spectacular rollercoasters here in the future, but only rides that work for the whole family.\u201d And there are hardly any attractions that visitors only passively sit in. Whether it\u2019s the swan pedal boats or the Kurpfalz Coaster: Most of the time they have to do something themselves. The biggest investment was also not one of the big rides, but the Piratennest. It is a huge, multi-storey adventure playground\u2014designed for this specific place. For hours, children can play here on their own and delve into their own pirate story. \u201cParents can let their children run around freely here. This usually doesn\u2019t work so well in other amusement parks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/092_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/092_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/092_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/092_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/092_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Thinking up your own adventures instead of being constantly entertained: the Piratennest playground is an ideal place to do this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The summer toboggan run named Rotsteigflitzer has had modern competition in the form of the Kurpfalz Coaster, but no one here is thinking of dismantling it. \u201cIt\u2019s part of the park. The visitors still enjoy riding it as much today as they did in the past.\u201d For the same reason, the slide paradise is still being kept in good shape. \u201cI really don\u2019t think that children will ever lose interest in sliding,\u201d says Peter Braun Jr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/010_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/010_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31041\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/010_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/010_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/010_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The ever-popular slide paradise: During the week and outside the holidays, you almost have it to yourself.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Families with young children\u2014that\u2019s the main target group. \u201cMany come here as children, then perhaps prefer to go to the big adventure parks as teenagers, but then come back as soon as they have children of their own,\u201d says Peter Braun Jr. Because it\u2019s much more relaxed here than in other amusement parks and you can always treat yourself to some time out in the Palatinate Forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/083_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/083_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31187\" width=\"840\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/083_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/083_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/083_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Relaxed wolves: the brothers Vucko and Sashok.

If you do the big loop, you\u2019ll walk more than four kilometres. Heading north, the path leads to the valley of fallow deer and birds of prey. And at the daily flight show, visitors learn more about vultures, falcons or owls. Heading west, the path leads past the wolf enclosure. Here, the brothers Vucko and Sashok enjoy retirement. \u201cThey are now eleven years old, so we don\u2019t do public feedings anymore,\u201d Peter Braun Jr. tells us. \u201cThe two are allowed to take it easy.\u201d They are very tame because they were raised by humans. \u201cThat\u2019s nice for the visitors, of course, because they actually get to see our wolves all the time.\u201d However, with the ibex, red deer and fallow deer, it can be quite difficult to spot them in their spacious enclosures. \u201cBut it matters to us that the animals are kept in a near-natural way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/064_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/064_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/064_kurpfalzpark_web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/064_kurpfalzpark_web-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/064_kurpfalzpark_web-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Friendly people, lots of animals, nature and occasional office work: Peter Braun Jr. enjoys the variety his job has to offer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">.In spring 2022, sika deer will be added to the area. They will move into an enclosure through which the small Mu\u00dfbach brook ripples. \u201cThey would actually have been here long ago, but snowfall at the beginning of April caused a lot of damage here,\u201d says Peter Braun Jr. Numerous trees collapsed under the weight of the snow masses, and some were even uprooted. They had to abandon the maze. A new ride will soon take its place. What it will be is not yet revealed.
