Back when the park first opened in 1975, that used to be the OG Festhaus before the actual Das Festhaus was built a year later. Nice to see the park touch it up despite not being in use for something currently, hopefully something can be done about that.
 
Does the clock still move with all the statues? It'd be cool if they added it to park map / schedule as an every hour little show with some added music score... one can wish.

DSC00557.jpeg The Willkommenhaus from August 22, 2009! Once upon an ice cream shop. (My shirt is wet from having just come off Le Scoot.). I miss the informational plaque about the Adolphus Busch fountain, but I can understand its removal once Busch sold the park. By the way, I read somewhere that this is not the original fountain, but rather a replica, since the Busch family took the original back. Can anyone confirm this?
 
A friend of mine who used to work there told me that the cables were installed for the safety of maintenance personnel when doing repairs to the Glockenspiel. I get why they’re there, but they do sort of interrupt the view, lol.

Totally understandable when maintenance is happening, but not sure why they have to stay up all the time.
