Urban Decay: The Derelict Spreepark Plänterwald Amusement Park

Oct 13, 2009 by Derek in Inspiration

This theme park is in East Berlin, Germany, and opened in 1969 – providing millions of people each year with countless hours of fun and good times. The Ferris Wheel itself was a landmark in the area. All the memories are now overgrown with weeds and given to the elements. See more of Oliver Schade’s photographs of the Spreepark Plänterwald amusement park.

    What a shame. Looks like a cool park. :(

    I dunno – I think it would be an awesome ride in itself in the current condition!

    I don’t understand how the park could just go under like that. You know a piece of local history and it just sits there rotting. It would make a cool local for a video game. They left the train, maybe there’s still passengers on it. ;)
