Existing Rhinefeld (Germany)

[Mwe BGW]

Candy Shop

 

[mtpelepele]

My guess: a bar.

Didn’t take any pictures but they had the entrance to the candy shop blocked by a construction barrier today….

We are going to tweet out a better photo later, but here is a pic in the meantime:

Sometimes you just get lucky with timing. couldn't see much but the inside appears to be largely gutted which is I guess pretty much as expected.

For reference: Dinkelsbühl:

... and Rothenburg:

I will note, though, that when you google them you get a lot of photos that have had the color saturation artificially boosted, like the one below. Maybe that was the inspiration.

I wonder if that PS in the comment area is related to the work on the old candy shop.

 

[Ice]

100% is. And I am 100% expecting to not only be disappointed by what they put there, but even infuriated.

Maybe it'll be a deCent new Food locAtion?

Are you kidding me? If they do I’ll jump off the Rhine River trestle.

I know exactly what you said in there.

You mean like a Chick-fil-A?

I mean, it is a theme park - hard not to expect cartoony architectural interpretations even if the park was once known for being realistic.

I will say that given my reputation, I have no inside knowledge on this, but it does line up rather well with other rumors that have been doing the rounds. I give it a solid 37% chance

I'd argue that Killarney looks like a box of Lucky Charms.

nope its gonna be another wine bar

I'd argue that Killarney looks like a box of Lucky Charms.

To be fair, even Killarney had a far more subtle, darker color scheme when it opened. It was repainted to its current pastel color scheme with the addition of Europe in the Air and Celtic Fyre in 2010.

Coupling that with Oktoberfest’s rainbow color scheme in 2011, maybe this whole process of repainting hamlets to look like cartoons has been around longer than we thought?

I've been to Rothenburg. And you, sir, are no Rothenburg.

Although there is a McDonalds within the walls of the medieval city, complete with wrought iron golden arches. So we have that to look forward to when BGW needs more 'inspiration".
