Castello dei Medici
Castello dei Medici is the haunted castle in the Italy themed area. The former Geisterschloss from 1982 has been thoroughly renovated and returned in 2024 with a new theme.
The concept
The story revolves around Lorenzo, after the historical Lorenzo de' Medici from the early Italian Renaissance. He wants revenge on the treacherous Pazzi family and finds an ancient stone tablet covered in strange symbols. The text promises eternal life to whoever follows the clues.
The Experience
In a two-person gondola you're carried through the palace. All around you hear ghostly voices and see eerie figures. Light, sound, smoke and scents complete the atmosphere. Whether Lorenzo escapes death, you'll find out during the four-minute ride.
