'Europa-Park Children's House Little Heroes'

As a flagship charity project launched to mark Europa-Park’s 50th anniversary, a dedicated children’s house for 'little heroes' was built within a new complex of buildings and guest accommodation in Silver Lake City and officially opened in July 2026.

With this children’s house, the Mack family has created a place where families can find new strength and a sense of light-heartedness, and regain a sense of normality, following their child’s serious battle with cancer.
 

The children’s home was realised with the support of 'RTL – Wir helfen Kindern e. V.', the German Children’s Cancer Foundation in Bonn, the charitable association Stelzenmännchen in Karlsruhe and other donors. DJ BoBo has taken on the role of patron for the project.

The Kinderhaus comprises five large flats, each accommodating a family of four, situated next to the new building and guest house complex planned for Silver Lake City. The first families have already moved in and are making use of the facilities on site.

Europa-Park owner Roland Mack explains: “Since the announcement of the ‘Europa-Park Children’s House – Little Heroes’, we have received nothing but positive feedback. The fact that the first families are now here and we can see the happiness on their faces shows us that this project is a resounding success. Family cohesion, in particular, is of great importance following the immense strain caused by cancer.
 

Their stay with us at Europa-Park, in the Rulantica Water World and the surroundings of the new Silver Lake City is intended to restore their zest for life and help them return to normality. Not only the child who has recovered, but also their siblings and parents have been through a great deal. Our aim is to further support the healing process through a zest for life. A huge thank you goes to everyone involved and to our strong partners.”
