HOW DO YOU SAY GOODNIGHT?

...when the world is whirring at such a fast pace? Scientific breakthroughs, feats of modern invention, and domestic wonders -- the relentless stimuli that animate waking life and permeate dreams are ever gaining momentum. A restless outer world pokes and prods and ultimately overtakes those who would try to rest. Enchanting, enthralling, frightening -- how do you possibly say goodnight?

Salon Steamcarrousel

The Steam Carousel dating from 1895, was bought by Efteling from Hendrik Janvier, who had toured with it to local funfairs, and has been operating in the park since 1956. Hendrik Janvier considered to be the founding father of the salon carousel, sold the Carousel because of the high costs and declining income. Building the ride up took 4 days and it had to be transported with 25 train carriages and trucks.
Rumour has it that Anton Pieck, the most important creative designer of Efteling, pushed for the purchase, because he rode the carousel as a child in Haarlem.

There also is a bar area within the salon carousel. The area surrounding these carousels was normally used for entertainment, eating and dancing in past times..
The seats of the carousel are in the form of animals, such as 22 Hübner horses and 2 Karl Müller carved pigs, and 4 carved Moulina gondolas and coaches, all turning to the music of an original Gavioli organ (only 5 remaining worldwide).
